"This doctrine of Christ and of the apostles, from which the true faith of the primitive church was received, the apostles at first delivered orally, without writing, but later, not by any human counsel but by the will of God, they handed it on in the Scriptures."
- Martin Chemnitz
Creedal
Our faith is in One God, the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. This is confessed in the ecumenical creeds.
Christological
All theology is christology. The Scriptures testify and speak concerning Jesus. It’s all about Him.
Liturgical
We retain the ceremonies and traditions of the ancient church because they deliver Jesus and the forgiveness of sins in Word and Sacrament.
Sacramental
The real adornment of the churches is godly, practical, and clear teaching, the godly use of the sacraments, ardent prayer, and the like.

Fifth Sunday after Trinity
At the Word of Jesus Saint Luke 5:1-11 The Gospel text that’s before us this morning is from early on in the earthly ministry of our Lord Jesus. He’s already been about and active throughout His native Galilee, preaching the good news of the kingdom of God, healing the sick and driving out demons. And[…]
Fourth Sunday after Trinity
Merciful Are the Blessed Saint Luke 6:36-42 You are all familiar with our Lord’s Sermon on the Mount—at least the beginning portion of that sermon commonly called the Beatitudes. Every year on the Feast of All Saints, these nine statements, each beginning with the words, “Blessed are,” such as “Blessed are the peacemakers,” make up[…]
Third Sunday after Trinity
Coming to Yourself in the Father’s Love Saint Luke 15:11-32 One hundred and fifty years ago, the nation of Canada was born. To this birth, Queen Victoria gave royal assent, saying, “We do ordain, declare, and command that on and after the First day of July, One Thousand Eight Hundred and Sixty-seven, the Provinces of[…]
Second Sunday after Trinity
Note: This sermon was written by Pastor Voege and read while he was away on holidays. The Wisdom of Faith Proverbs 9:1-10 In the Old Testament, there are recorded numerous theophanies, that is, appearances of God to man. In Second Chronicles we’re told of one of them. After offering up a thousand burnt[…]
First Sunday after Trinity
Note: This sermon was written by Pastor Voege and read at a lay-led service while he was away on holidays. Where Is Your Treasure? Saint Luke 16:19-31 Pastor Voege tells of how, when he was a kid, his parents subscribed to the Saturday edition of The Detroit Free Press, where he saw, on the[…]
Feast of the Holy Trinity
The ‘Truly, Truly’ of the Trinity Saint John 3:1-17 Today we celebrate the Feast of the Holy Trinity, a festival day of the Christian Church not devoted to an event, such as the birth or the resurrection of our Lord, but to a fundamental teaching of the Christian faith, namely that, as the Athanasian Creed[…]
Feast of Pentecost
Pentecost’s “New Law” Acts 2:1-21 and Saint John 14:23-31 Today we celebrate the Day of Pentecost, as Christians have for nearly two millennia. Now while this is an important feast day for the Christian Church, Pentecost actually has its roots back in the Old Testament—back when the Lord God wrote His Law on the tablets[…]
Seventh Sunday of Easter
We Are His Witnesses Saint John 15:26-16:4 We are His witnesses. This is what we sang five times in the first hymn today. This is what our Lord Jesus tells us in the Gospel Reading that we heard. Though He said it to His disciples in the Upper Room before He went with them to[…]
Ascension of our Lord
Heilsgeschichte! Saint Luke 24:44-53 Heilsgeschichte! If you’re itching to respond, “God bless you!” or “Gesundheit!” it’s understandable, for that strange utterance does sound like some sort of noise a nasally distressed individual might make. Heilsgeschichte! Gesundheit! God bless! Thank you very much! Heilsgeschichte, however, is a German word that means, “salvation history”—it’s a word I[…]
The Sixth Sunday of Easter
Praying With the Mind of Christ Saint John 16:23-33 In Ephesians 3:20, the apostle Paul affirms that God is “able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think,” which prompts Martin Luther to add, “God’s title and true name is this, that He is a Hearer of prayers. But we …[…]

"... Rather than being dull, stodgy or stuck in the past, the worship at Our Saviour is substantive and serious. It is substantive in that it is filled from beginning to end with the real meat and potatoes of Christianity. There is no fluff or filler. Everything is directed toward Christ, the forgiveness of our sins, the resurrection of the body and the life everlasting. "
