Leave the Cult of Mammon!Sermon preached by Pastor Julius Buelow at Mt Olive Lutheran in Lincoln, NE for Trinity 15 on September 13, 2026.Sermon text: Matthew 6:24-3524“No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and mammon. 25“For this reason I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? 26Look at the birds of the air. They do not sow or reap or gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they? 27“Which of you can add a single moment to his lifespan by worrying? 28Why do you worry about clothing? Consider how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin, 29but I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was dressed like one of these. 30If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will he not clothe you even more, you of little faith? 31“So do not worry, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘What will we wear?’ 32For the unbelievers chase after all these things. Certainly your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” Holy Bible: Evangelical Heritage Version (Milwaukee, WI: Northwestern Publishing House, 2019), Mt 6:24–34.
Don't Spoil the GiftSermon preached for Trinity 14 at Mt Olive Lutheran Church in Lincoln, NE on September 6th, 2026.Sermon text: Luke 17:11-1911On another occasion, as Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem, he was passing along the border between Samaria and Galilee. 12When he entered a certain village, ten men with leprosy met him. Standing at a distance, 13they called out loudly, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!” 14When he saw them, he said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” As they went away they were cleansed. 15One of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice. 16He fell on his face at Jesus’ feet, thanking him. And he was a Samaritan. 17Jesus responded, “Were not ten cleansed? Where are the other nine? 18Was no one found to return and give glory to God except this foreigner?” 19Then he said to him, “Get up and go your way. Your faith has saved you.” Holy Bible: Evangelical Heritage Version (Milwaukee, WI: Northwestern Publishing House, 2019), Lk 17:11–19.
The Holiness Is in the DetailsSermon preached by Pastor Julius Buelow at Mt Olive Lutheran Church in Lincoln NE for Trinity 13 on August 30th, 2026.Sermon text: Leviticus 19:9-189When you reap the harvest from your land, you are not to finish reaping all the way to the edge of the field. Do not gather up the gleanings of your harvest. 10Do not strip your vineyard clean, and do not pick up the fallen grapes from your vineyard, but leave them for the poor and the alien who live with you. I am the LORD your God. 11You shall not steal. You shall not swindle. You shall not lie to one another. 12You shall not swear falsely by my name so that you do not profane the name of your God. I am the LORD. 13You shall not exploit your neighbor. You shall not rob him. You shall not keep the wages of a day laborer with you overnight until morning. 14You shall not curse a deaf person, nor shall you put an obstacle in front of a blind person, but you must fear your God. I am the LORD. 15You shall not act unjustly in court cases. Do not show favoritism to a poor person, and do not show undue honor to an important person. You must judge your fellow citizens with justice. 16You shall not go around spreading slander among your people. You shall not testify falsely against your neighbor in a capital case. I am the LORD. 17You shall not hate a fellow Israelite in your heart. You must openly rebuke your fellow citizen so that you do not become responsible for his sin. 18You must not take revenge. You must not bear a grudge against the members of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD.Holy Bible: Evangelical Heritage Version (Milwaukee, WI: Northwestern Publishing House, 2019), Le 19:9–18.
God Can Teach the Worst StudentsSermon preached for Trinity 12 at Mt Olive Lutheran Church in Lincoln, NE on August 23, 2026. Sermon text: Isaiah 29:11-13, 17-19, 2411For you this whole vision has become like the words of a sealed scroll. If you give it to someone who can read, and you say, “Read this, please,” he will say, “I can’t. It is sealed.” 12And if you give it to someone who cannot read, and you say, “Read this, please,” he will say, “I can’t read.” 13The Lord says: These people approach me with their words, and they honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is nothing but commandments taught by men. 17Isn’t it true that in a very short time Lebanon will be turned into a fertile field, and the fertile field will seem like a forest? 18On that day, the deaf will hear the words from a book, and out of gloom and darkness the eyes of the blind will see. 19The humble will rejoice in the LORD once again, and the poor will delight in the Holy One of Israel. 20But the ruthless will come to nothing. Those who mock will be no more, and all those who plan evil will be cut off— 21all those who slander others with a word, all those who argue cases at the city gate, all those who use false testimony to deprive the innocent of justice. 22Therefore this is what the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, says about the house of Jacob: Jacob will not be ashamed anymore. His face will not grow pale. 23But when his children see what I do among them, they will honor my name. They will honor the Holy One of Jacob. They will stand in awe of the God of Israel. 24Those who are confused will come to understand, and those who complain will gladly receive instruction. Holy Bible: Evangelical Heritage Version (Milwaukee, WI: Northwestern Publishing House, 2019), Is 29
Pick the SInner Out of the LineupSermon preached by Pastor Julius Buelow for Trinity 11 at Mt Olive Lutheran Church in Lincoln, NE on August 16th 2026.Sermon text: Luke 18:9-149 Jesus told this parable to certain people who trusted in themselves (that they were righteous) and looked down on others: 10“Two men went up to the temple courts to pray. One was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood and prayed about himself like this: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people, robbers, evildoers, adulterers, or even like this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week. I give a tenth of all my income.’ 13“However the tax collector stood at a distance and would not even lift his eyes up to heaven, but was beating his chest and saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’ 14“I tell you, this man went home justified rather than the other, because everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”Holy Bible: Evangelical Heritage Version (Milwaukee, WI: Northwestern Publishing House, 2019), Lk 18:9–14.
Plan Your Life God's WaySermon preached at Mt Olive Lutheran in Lincoln, NE by Pastor Julius Buelow for Trinity 9 on August 2, 2026.Sermon text: Proverbs 16:1-6 1A person may have thought things through in his heart, but an apt answer from his tongue comes from the LORD. 2All of a person’s ways are pure in his own eyes, but the LORD weighs motives. 3Commit what you do to the LORD, and your plans will be established. 4The LORD has made everything for his own purpose, even a wicked person for a day of trouble. 5Anyone with an arrogant attitude is disgusting to the LORD. Be sure of this: That person will not go unpunished. 6Through mercy and truth, guilt is atoned for, and through the fear of the LORD, one turns away from evil. Holy Bible: Evangelical Heritage Version (Milwaukee, WI: Northwestern Publishing House, 2019), Pr 16:1–6.
God's Word Brings the HammerSermon preached by Pastor Julius Buelow for Trinity 8 at Mt Olive Lutheran in Lincoln, NE on July 26, 2026.Sermon text, Jeremiah 23:16-29: 16This is what the LORD of Armies says. Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you. They are giving you false hope. They proclaim visions that come from their own hearts and not from the mouth of the LORD. 17They keep saying to those who despise me, “The LORD has said that you will have peace.” And to everyone who walks in the stubbornness of his own heart, they say, “No harm will come to you.” 18But have any of them stood in the council of the LORD, to see and hear his word? Who has listened to his word and heard it? 19Look, a storm from the LORD! His wrath has gone out, like a whirlwind twisting down, whirling over the heads of the wicked. 20The LORD’s anger will not turn back until he has completely fulfilled the purposes of his heart. In later days you will understand it fully. 21I did not send these prophets, yet they ran. I did not speak to them, yet they prophesied. 22But if they had stood in my council, they would have made my people hear my words, and they would have turned them from their evil ways and from their evil deeds. 23Am I a God who is only nearby, declares the LORD, and not a God far away? 24Can anyone hide in secret places so that I cannot see him? declares the LORD. Do I not fill heaven and earth? declares the LORD. 25I have heard what the prophets who prophesy lies in my name have said. They say, “I have had a dream! I have had a dream!” 26How long will this be in the hearts of these lying prophets? These prophets proclaim the fantasies of their own hearts. 27They think they can make my people forget my name with the dreams each one tells his neighbor, the way their fathers forgot my name because of Baal. 28Let the prophet who has a dream tell his dream. But let the one who has my word speak my word faithfully. What has chaff to do with grain? declares the LORD. 29Is not my word like a fire? declares the LORD, and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces?"Holy Bible: Evangelical Heritage Version (Milwaukee, WI: Northwestern Publishing House, 2019), Je 23:16–29.
The Tension Between the Physical and SpiritualSermon preached by Pastor Julius Buelow for Trinity 7 at Mt Olive in Lincoln, NE on 7/19/2026.Sermon text: Mark 8:1-9aIn those days, when there was again a large crowd and they had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples and said to them, 2“I feel compassion for the crowd because they have already stayed with me three days and do not have anything to eat. 3If I send them home hungry, they will faint on the way. Some of them have come from a long distance.” 4His disciples replied, “Where can anyone get enough bread to feed these people here in this deserted place?” 5He asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” “Seven,” they said. 6He commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground. Then he took the seven loaves, gave thanks, and broke them. He gave the pieces to his disciples to distribute to the crowd, and they did so. 7They also had a few small fish. He blessed them and said that these should be distributed as well. 8The people ate and were satisfied. They picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. 9About four thousand men were there.Holy Bible: Evangelical Heritage Version (Milwaukee, WI: Northwestern Publishing House, 2019), Mk 8:1–9.
