A Head's Up

The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod will be offering the Institute on Liturgy, Preaching, and Church Music from July 28 to July 31, 2014. The theme for the institute will be "Comfort, Comfort Ye, My People: Singing, Preaching, and Praying the Comfort of Christ to the Troubled Conscience and the Broken Heart."

Perhaps the idea of Seward, Nebraska, in July is not high on your intentions list but I would suggest it is an occasion worth the time, money, and effort. I hope you will join us! I will be there presenting on a topic or two...

The Window

This is the Means of Grace Window that is above the altar of Grace Lutheran Church where I serve. It reminds us of the keys (confession and absolution), the wheat(the bread which is the Body of Christ), the cup (which is His Blood), the Word (Scripture), and the Pastoral Office (the red stole). In this one wonderful window we see the treasures of the Church in the Word and Sacraments and I love that it is available for all to see. I realize that this image has been stolen all over the internet but it is a real window, a copyrighted image, belonging to Grace Lutheran Church, Clarksville, Tennessee, which has kindly allowed my use of it...
