Matthew 6:19-34: Unbelievable mercy to unbelievable sinners: O you of little faith.

Rev. Dr. Paul Holtorf, Professor of Theology at Concordia University in Seward, NE joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study Matthew 6:19-34. We are continually growing in Christ. Jesus calls us to faith so that when we battle the idols of earthly treasures, fear of God’s providence, and our lack of seeking His righteousness. We are challenged as Jesus says, “O you of little faith.” Clearly we need to be exhorted for our lack of faith, but Jesus is encouraging us that, as His children, we are continually growing to understand how He has provided our salvation in Christ and is providing for our needs. “O Holy Spirit, fill us with faith. Bring us to repentance for our lack of faith and trust in You. Grant us forgiveness in Christ and help us to trust in Your providential promises in Christ. Lord have mercy. Amen”
