On Faith: Easter Bunny, are you for real?

On Faith: Jesus accepted the final sacrifice
“Teleõ!” That’s Jesus, as quoted in John 19:30. It’s one small word with such huge meaning.

On Faith: It’s clutter now, but clarity looms
I can’t help but notice all the mess in my life lately. It’s terribly messy outside in our northern Minnesota version of spring. Freezing, melting, and re-freezing; rain or slushy snowfall; mud and puddles everywhere.By Pastor Susan Berge, Knife River Lutheran Church , March 31, 2011

On Faith: Love is the all-time winner
“What’s Love Got to Do With It?” That’s the title of a Tina Turner song from 1984. I know that by the time you read this Valentine’s Day will be over. But it’s always a good thing to talk about love. What’s love got to do with it?By Pastor Kirk Schield, Shepherd of the Lake Lutheran Church , February 17, 2011
On Faith: Catch a bite of spirituality
It doesn’t take long, after the ice is barely thick enough, before the lakes are dotted with those little houses or lone figures on up-turned buckets. What would winter here be without ice fishing? It is in the blood.By Rev. Laura Berdahl, Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Castle Danger , February 10, 2011
