Celebrate the wonder of Christmas with this sermon on Luke 2:1–14. Explore the humble birth of Christ, the message to the shepherds, the peace He brings, and the joy of God’s mercy made flesh. Perfect for reflection, meditation, and deepening your faith this holy season.

In this Christmas proclamation on Luke 2:1–14, the mystery of the Incarnation is preached in a rhythmic, Luther-style cadence meant for oral hearing and meditation.

Set against the decree of Caesar and the false glory of the world, this sermon proclaims Christ hidden in humility—laid in a manger, wrapped in cloths, announced not to kings but to shepherds. Here the theology of the cross is preached: God revealed where human reason least expects Him.

This sermon emphasizes:

The Incarnation and the hidden glory of God

Christ as Savior, Christ, and Lord

The overthrow of false gods and the preaching of the First Commandment

Justification by grace alone, for sinners

Peace on earth through the forgiveness of sins

What is faith—and what makes something a god?

In this sermon on John 20:24–31, the risen Christ meets Thomas not with rebuke, but with peace, wounds, and a promise. From Thomas’s demand for sight to his great confession—“My Lord and my God”—we learn that faith does not rest on proof, feelings, or certainty, but on Christ crucified and risen for sinners.

Drawing deeply from Luther’s teaching on the First Commandment, this sermon exposes the hidden idols of sight, reason, and control, and proclaims the Gospel:

God has bound Himself to His Word, His wounds, and His promise of life.

“These things are written so that you may believe… and have life in His name.”

A confessional Lutheran sermon for doubters, catechumens, and weary saints alike.
