    LC-MS History

    Is there a good book any of you can recommend that talks about the history and beliefs of the LC-MS. I picked up “ A History of Lutheranism” by Eric W. Gritsch, but it doesn’t contain much about the LC-MS.

    The Big Move

    Well, it’s official. I gave into my wife’s demands, and we’ll be moving back down to Tennessee in about a year and a half.:doh: Real bummer since I’ve grown attached to the church we attend here. Looked around on the web for churches (Lutheran) that are around where we’ll be living. There’s a...

    Lent and Ash Wednesday

    This year will be the first year I have the privilege to attend an Ash Wednesday service. I’ve been a practicing Lutheran (okay, some of you cranky folks will at least call me pseudo-Lutheran because I belong to the ELCA:P ) for only about a year and a half. Last year I totally missed ALL of the...

    the ELCA's left leaning advocacy

    This has been a question that's been with me for a while. We go after the more right wingish Christians for their political leanings a lot, and most of the time rightly so.

    Hey, lets pick and choose!

    Okay, recent posts in other threads has made me decide to open a new thread regarding what we, the ELCA, believe are the ‘inspired’ word of God and what isn’t in the bible. I wasn’t joking before when I said that we in the ELCA pick and choose the word to fit our prospective. Sad but true...

    Abortion and the ELCA
