New Week Message
Greetings New Hope Lutherans, Friends, Credentialed Scientists, and Scientific Thinkers
Yes, Planet Earth is older than ten thousand years. Perhaps Isaac Newton’s Laws of Physics don’t work everywhere in the Cosmos. But they sure work here! Counting numbers exist on a continuum for infinity. Two Hydrogen atoms and one Oxygen atom can unite to create water. Scientific facts.
Us Lutheran Christians got our start at the University of Wittenberg. 1517. A monk named Martin Luther had more questions than answers about life and how humanity was bogged down and not using the brains God gave us to learn lessons from ancient scriptures and reason. He used Mr Gutenberg’s, year 1414, printing press…and inspired humans out of the “Dark Ages.”
New Hope is part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church In America. We think about theology. We use historical and scientific insights to explore the metaphysical claims of faith, such as consciousness and eternity. We ordain men and women. We are diverse. We engage for humanitarian causes to promote better wellbeing for all, and the precious planet upon which we live.
So—if you want a faith, mystic and metaphysical experience, that LOVES, embraces reason and science too…
May I suggest New Hope is for you….?
Welcome.
Here we go!
Interim Pastor Jeff Swanson

"Christians Thrived, Despite Severe Roman Persecutions. Why?"
Greetings New Hope Lutherans and Friends
For many years, I’ve been thinking about the history of “salvation” teachings in the Church, beginning amongst the first Christians. So, I’ve decided to write a series of short essays. Limited to 500 words each. Easy reads...click on the button to begin :)

“O God, you have called your servants to ventures of which we cannot see the ending, by paths as yet untrodden, through perils unknown. Give us faith to go out with good courage, not knowing where we go, but only that your hand is leading us and your love supporting us; through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
