David Otten: What does 'dominion' mean regarding man's relationship with fellow creatures?

David Otten: Make a different kind of resolution this new year

Happy New Year from Faith Lutheran Church in Eldorado. New Year's resolutions have been a tradition as long as I can remember. Many of them involve some type of self-improvement, such as losing weight, reducing credit card debt, or stopping smoking. All good resolutions, though it seems that keeping them is the biggest challenge.

Matters of Faith: Christmas is the beginning of many things

The entire month of December we talked about the true meaning of Christmas. Now I would like to make one more point about Christmas. It was the beginning of many things, but it isn't the end of anything. Jesus's death and resurrection and even his return in the form of the Holy Spirit was not the end but a beautiful beginning. I think about it as new life. How exciting! John 12:24 says it better than I can, "I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone but its death will produce many new kernels -- a plentiful harvest of new life."

David Otten: Straining gnats and swallowing camels

Greetings from Faith Lutheran Church in Eldorado. Every year, there seems to be some Christmas drama, normally involving a Nativity scene on public land or an atheist group putting up a billboard declaring everything about Jesus as a myth. This year, the drama is over the song, "Baby, It's Cold Out There," composed by Frank Loesser in 1944.

Corzine-McCloskey: The real Grinch who steals Christmas

When we were kids, my brother and I got fevered when gifts would start amassing under the Christmas tree. One year the Mac Daddy of all gift boxes appeared. It was huge and heavy, with a tag addressed to us both. We fantasized about the treasure trove of toys we were sure awaited us in that box. On Christmas morning we tore into it, quivering with anticipation. What did we find?

Matters of Faith: Where do we find faith? Look inward

Scripture tells us in Hebrew 11:1 ... "Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen." Faith is not something that can be seen or touched at the time that it is needed; it can only be acted upon and the results witnessed later. These things that we have hoped for and these things we have convictions about. But some will still ask, Where do I find or get faith?

David Otten: Can God change his mind?

Greetings from Faith Lutheran Church in Eldorado. Does God change His mind? Can our actions or prayers be a factor in what God will do?

David Otten: The importance of St. John the Baptist
