Everything Belongs to God | Return to Sender – Matthew 25:14-25 At Divine Savior Church, Pastor Ben Kuerth continues our “Return to Sender” series with a powerful message from Matthew 25:14-25 — “It All Belongs to Him.” We explore the truth that everything we have — our time, talents, and treasures — ultimately belongs to God. We are not owners; we are faithful stewards of what God has entrusted to us. In this message, Pastor Ben unpacks what joyful stewardship looks like when we recognize God’s ownership of all things. Drawing from Genesis — where God entrusts humanity with His creation — we see how stewardship begins with understanding God as the source of every blessing. Scriptures like Psalm 24:1-6 remind us that “The earth is the LORD’s and everything in it,” and James 1:16-18 emphasizes that every good and perfect gift is from above and that we are the firstfruits of His blessings. Whether you’re seeking to grow in faithful stewardship, clarify your calling, or deepen your trust in God’s provision, this message will challenge and encourage you to live with a greater sense of responsibility, gratitude, and joy.

Hearts Made Ready Through Hope | John 1:29–42 | The Lamb of God Welcome to our Hearts Made Ready Christmas series at Divine Savior Church Doral. Join us every Sunday at 9:30am as we prepare our hearts to receive Christ through God’s Word. In John 1:29–42, John the Baptist points to Jesus and boldly declares, “Look—the Lamb of God!” With this powerful testimony, John directs weary and waiting hearts to the One who truly takes away guilt and sin. Jesus is not only the promised Savior—he is the source of real hope, lasting peace, and a future we can trust. This message, Hearts Made Ready Through Hope, reminds us that Christmas is about more than anticipation—it is about recognition. Like the first disciples, we are invited to look to Jesus, discover the hope he offers, and follow him with trust. Through Christ, God brings forgiveness for our past, peace for our present, and confidence for our future. As our hearts are made ready through hope, we are also called to share that hope with others. Whether you are exploring faith, seeking encouragement, or growing as a disciple, this message will help you see Jesus more clearly and trust him more deeply this Christmas season.

Hearts Made Ready through Confidence | Advent at Divine Savior Zechariah’s Song: Celebrating God’s Faithfulness Before Christmas After months of silence, Zechariah’s first words were not complaints—but praise.

Despite his doubts and silence, Zechariah saw God’s promises unfold, culminating in the coming of the Savior.

Hearts Made Ready through Praise | Advent at Divine Savior Mary’s Song: How God Lifts Up the Humble | Luke 1 Advent Message Mary wasn’t rich, powerful, or famous. She was an ordinary young woman.

This Sunday at Divine Savior Church, Pastor Ben Kuerth explores Luke 1:26–38, 46–55, showing how Mary’s story reveals the heart of the Christmas message: it’s not about what we do for God, but about what God has done—and continues to do—for the world.

Hearts Made Ready Through Repentance | Advent at Divine Savior The Christmas season often leaves us scattered, stretched thin, and overwhelmed by everything we think we must do. But Advent reminds us: true preparation doesn’t come from doing more—it comes from returning home. In today’s message from Luke 1:5–25, Pastor Caleb Schmiege leads us through the announcement of John the Baptist’s birth—a pivotal moment in God’s plan to turn hearts back to Him. As we begin our Advent series Hearts Made Ready, we are reminded that the season starts not with decorations or busy schedules, but with repentance. Through the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth, God shows how He faithfully prepares the way for Jesus by calling His people back—back to forgiveness, peace, and a new beginning. This message invites us all to come home to God.

In this powerful message from Pastor Grant Hagan, we explore Ruth chapter 3 and what it reveals about faithfulness, integrity, and God’s providence. How should Christians respond when tempted to manipulate situations or use others for personal gain? What does true faithfulness look like when life is hard and no one is watching? Through the example of Ruth and Boaz, we learn that godly character is shown in quiet obedience, sacrificial choices, and unwavering trust in God's plan. Pastor Grant challenges us to live with integrity even when it’s difficult, just as Christ remained faithful through suffering for our sake. Join us this Sunday as we worship together and are strengthened by God's Word. We also joyfully welcome the DSA 3rd graders and their families, who will sing and celebrate with us in worship.

It's all about your performance | Satan's Sleight of Hand Grace, Not Performance: Freedom in Christ – Romans 3:19–28 This Sunday at Divine Savior Church Doral (9:30 a.m.), Pastor Caleb concludes our impactful series, “Satan’s Sleight of Hand,” with a message that hits close to home: “It’s all about your performance.” Everywhere we turn—school, work, relationships, social media, even inside the church—we feel the pressure to perform, to prove our worth, to measure up. But that’s one of the oldest lies of the enemy. The truth of the Gospel sets us free: our worth isn’t determined by what we do but by what Christ has done for us. In Romans 3:19–28, the Apostle Paul reminds us that righteousness is not something we earn, but something we receive. Through Christ’s finished work on the cross, we are declared righteous, forgiven, and loved — not because of our performance, but because of His perfect grace. Come and experience the assurance of God’s grace through His Word and Sacrament. Find rest for your soul, freedom from guilt, and the deep joy of knowing your identity is secure in Jesus Christ. ✨ Join us in person or online — as we close out “Satan’s Sleight of Hand” with a message that will help you let go of striving and rest in God’s amazing grace.

That Sin Can’t Be Forgiven (?) | Satan’s Sleight of Hand One of Satan’s most damaging lies is this: “God could never forgive that.” In this message from our series Satan’s Sleight of Hand, we look at how guilt, shame, and self-condemnation can trap us in hopelessness. This weekend, guest preacher Missionary Zach Satorius opens up the tragic story of Judas Iscariot—a man who walked with Jesus but believed the lie that his sin was too great to be forgiven. His story shows us the danger of unresolved guilt and the desperate need we all have for self-forgiveness rooted in Christ’s mercy.
