Maybe that's too strong a term. I don't know what to call it, but I don't like it, and I don't know what to do about it. I'll try to keep this story as short as possible. I love my church. I love the mission of the church. I love the sermons. I really do believe this is where God wants me...

Is Hell being described in those verses? I always thought it was, then someone pointed out Luther's Church Postil, 1522-23. Is it Hell or something symbolic of being separated from God?

We're tentatively scheduled to go pick up our kids in Ethiopia the first of June. If anyone here is friends with me on Facebook, you know that I'm in freak-out mode, trying to finalize everything since we only have a month now. Reality is setting in. Since I'm generally a scatterbrain, I just...

Has anyone enrolled their children in a Montessory academy, instead of a regular daycare? If so, please tell me what you thought of it. Thanks!

I saw this posted by another LCMSer on an ecumenical messageboard. I've never thought of it like this and I'm wondering if you have any thoughts. My thought was that if God commanded John the Baptist to baptize the first time around, then coming from God that should be good enough to not...

Our church is doing a sermon series on Genesis, so our small group decided to do a Bible Study on Revelation. We are weird like that. Can anyone point me in the direction of a study on Revelation that would be good for small groups? Danke!

I think this is the website: https://www.youngliving.org/suestg A lady in my Bible Study either just swears by it, or is going to start selling it. She keeps calling them "Young Living Biblical Oils" and the site I found is closest to that. She claims that there is a Biblical story behind...

Good dear friend of mine is in the middle of a particularly nasty divorce with his second wife. He's a sweet, sweet, guy who keeps finding girls who walk all over him. The first wife used him to get through nursing school, then left him - she didn't make a big deal during the divorce. This one...
