Video Series: Preaching Christ Through the Historic Lectionary

"Now the church’s preacher has two duties, the interpretation of Scripture and applying it to salutary use.”
(Johann Gerhard, Method of Theological Study)

This weekly video series is designed to equip pastors—both on the African continent and worldwide—with faithful and practical insights into the appointed texts of the One-Year Lectionary, also known as the Historic Lectionary. Each episode explores the pericopes for the upcoming Sunday, offering exegetical study, theological reflection, and homiletical application.

Rooted in the rich heritage of Lutheran preaching, these studies aim to help pastors rightly divide the Word of Truth, bringing the timeless message of Christ to their congregations with clarity and conviction. Whether you are preparing your sermon or deepening your understanding of the text, this resource is here to serve you in the task of proclaiming Christ crucified for sinners.

Sermons of Martin Luther
A Timeless Resource for Preachers and Theologians

Martin Luther’s sermons remain a treasure trove of biblical insight, theological depth, and pastoral wisdom. As a preacher of Christ crucified, Luther expounded the Scriptures with clarity, conviction, and a deep concern for the spiritual well-being of his hearers. His sermons not only illuminate the meaning of the text but also model faithful preaching that applies Law and Gospel to the hearts of God’s people.

This collection includes three historic sets of Luther’s sermons from the 1800s, now available in the public domain. These works serve as an invaluable resource for pastors, students, and lay readers who desire to study and proclaim God’s Word in the spirit of the Reformation.

Thanks to Arthur Bolstad of Bolstad Publishing, these sermons are made accessible to the students at the Lutheran School of Theology and pastors on the continent of Africa, ensuring that Luther’s voice continues to instruct, encourage, and inspire those who stand in the pulpit and those who sit under the preaching of the Word.

Whether you seek exegetical insight, theological clarity, or pastoral encouragement, these sermons will strengthen your preaching and deepen your understanding of God’s gracious work in Christ.
