Pentecost219 viewsFifty days after the Resurrection of our Lord, His Twelve Disciples were gathered with other believers in a house in Jerusalem. As He had promised would happen, the Holy Spirit [here represented in the form of a dove] descended upon them. "Tongues as of fire" rested upon the disciples. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, who enabled them to speak the Word of God in foreign languages they had not known.
The postures of the disciples portrayed in this window depict the various responses which this phenomenal miracle must have evoked: the posture of humble penitence in recognizing this powerful presence of the Spirit of God; the posture of praise in another disciple, the posture of prayer in yet another; and the posture of exhortation assumed by Peter, who powerfully preached both Law and Gospel on Pentecost Day.
The Holy Spirit is still the One who enables His people to repent, praise, pray, and proclaim the Word of God.Apr 08, 2014

Nativity253 views"And she gave birth to her first-born son; and she wrapped Him in swaddling clothes, and laid Him in a manger..." [Luke 2:7]
The Virgin gently lays in the manger the Holy Child, God in the flesh come to save us. His earthly guardian, Joseph, looks on, as the angels who had sung, "Glory to God in the highest!" now watch in awe. A star overhead marks the place of His birth: a stable that He shares with cattle. A lamb and shepherd's staff [which forms the vertical beam of the stable] remind us of the shepherds to whom the Christmas message was first proclaimed. A cross behind the head of the infant Savior declares His later words: "For this purpose I came into the world." [John 18:37] And, the descending beam of light from above portrays the presence of God the Father, who "so loved the world that He gave His only-begotten Son." [John 3:16]
In Luther's words, Welcome to earth, Thou noble Guest, in Whom this sinful world is blest!

Crucifixion293 viewsThe sacrifice of the Son of God upon the cross is made for the sins of the world. "We have been sanctified," Scripture says, "through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all." [Hebrews 10:10]
From his side--pierced with a spear--blood and water flow forth. [John 19:34] Water droplets from the cross flow to the Baptismal stream, reminding us of the Sacrament of Baptism. Blood droplets from the cross flow to the Cup and Host of Holy Communion where we receive the very Body and Blood of the Lord. Both Sacraments bring us the benefits of the Cross "for the forgiveness of sins," as printed at the window's base.
