Product Description
by John E. Berger (Author)
John Berger's lively and invigorating messages tell us that the path to true happiness is through God. From the man who remembered to thank Jesus for being healed of leprosy to the persistent widow, from the penitent tax collector to the forgiven thief on the cross... all these characters and more were happier when they did things God's way. Berger brings us face-to-face with the people in gospel passages from the Revised Common Lectionary. Contrary to his whimsical title, readers will discover that Berger does far better than score one run in ten trips to the plate -- his sermons consistently knock the ball out of the park!
Titles include:Ten Hits, One Run, Nine Errors (Luke 17:11-19)
Don't Hang Up On God (Luke 18:1-8)
God, The Ultimate Professional (Luke 20:27-38)
Golden Rule Saints (Luke 6:20-31)
For What God Has Given (John 6:25-35) John E. Berger is a cum laude graduate of Ohio State University and Hamma School of Theology. A veteran of 45 years in pastoral ministry, Berger was the longtime pastor of St. Lucas Lutheran Church in Toledo, Ohio. Now retired, he serves interim pastorates in the ELCA's Northwestern Ohio Synod.
