Welcome!

Welcome to Lemonholm.com, the personal website of Pastor Eric Lemonholm. This website is a sermon repository, a public journal, a soul project in the making.

This website is an exercise in remembering the occasional writings of a pastor, weekly preacher, and Doctor of Ministry in Biblical Preaching student.  My purpose is to welcome you along on a journey of the soul, to let the Spirit speak to you through my faltering prose, as the Spirit speaks to me through the lives and words of many.

As you can see, this is a completely new version of Lemonholm.com, and it’s seriously under construction.

I have uploaded sermons and writings from the fall and winter of 2009-2010, a time of conflict and discernment in my previous congregation and the whole Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.  You can find them here:

2009 Sermons: Preaching in the Midst of Conflict

2009 Writings: Addressing Conflict

2010 Sermons

2010 Writings

I also have moved to a new congregation, The Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd in Rockford, Illinois.  Our church’s website is http://www.goodshepherdrockford.org/.  We are excited for a new journey into God’s mission together!

Last but not least, I am developing a website as part of my Doctor of Ministry in Biblical Preaching thesis: http://opensourcelectionary.com/ Check it out!
