The Good Samaritan.
PARENTS: Here’s another resource for you, blog post from Pastor Ruddat on “Five Things we forget about the Good Samaritan.”
A more in-depth conversation between Pastor Dave Ruddat and Pastor Will Harley (St. John of Maribel) on the Bound Will and the COVID vaccines. Wade into the deep waters with us as we apply Lutheran ethics to the COVID vaccines.
“The Hands of the Passion.” When we consider Jesus and the people around him in his Passion, we can’t help but think of their hands—the hands that beat their breast, accepted money for betrayal, petulantly swung swords, pointed in accusation, beat and disavowed, praised, washed, were pierced, and offered eternal life. In short, we can’t help but think about how we sinners have had the same sinful hands of those who surrounded Jesus in his Passion, and how Jesus our Savior has touched us with his hands of grace.
Let’s worship together, whether that be outdoors (drive-in) or indoors (physically distant or non-physically distant).
If you cannot make it to Immanuel, here’s a flow chart of other church services and their topics on a particular week.
We will start with a Bible Study and then munch on pizza and play Wii-U and Wii video games on big screens. Come and bring a friend! Register by emailing kruddat@gmail.com so we can know how many pizzas to make.
God is not ignorant of suffering, he addresses the darkness. Jesus uses the word to address sin’s problems and uses the word to stay on course.

Mark 1:29-39 (EHV)
29They left the synagogue and went with James and John to the home of Simon and Andrew. 30Simon’s mother-in-law was lying in bed, sick with a fever. Without delay they told Jesus about her. 31He went to her, took her by the hand, and raised her up. The fever left her, and she began to serve them. 32That evening, when the sun had set, the people kept bringing to him all who were sick and demon-possessed. 33The whole town gathered at the door. 34He healed many people who were sick with various diseases and drove out many demons. But he did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who he was. 35Jesus got up early in the morning, while it was still dark, and went out. He withdrew to a solitary place and was praying there. 36Simon and his companions searched for him, 37and, when they found him, they said to him, “Everyone is looking for you!” 38He told them, “Let’s go somewhere else, to the neighboring villages, so that I can preach there too. In fact, that is why I have come.” 39Then he went throughout the whole region of Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and driving out demons.

Pastor Ruddat ruminates with Pastor Harley about Bible Studies. We look at the formal Pastor-led Bible studies and also small group bible studies. What are the goods and the bads, the ins and outs, and have we messed it up? Join us for this conversation as two parish pastors discuss their craft on equipping others through Bible studies.
