REFERENCED IN HOW LUTHERANS WORSHIP – 5: FROM ALDENSWAN.COM As I’ve mentioned recently, I was raised Lutheran. Since leaving the Lutheran Church, I’ve attended and visited a number of different churches, from Greek and Russian Orthodox to Evangelical Free to independent charismatic and “third wave” churches, to post-modern experiments. I can say from experience that [...]

In the previous part I said: “it is appropriate that all those who are baptized may join in making the sign of the cross as a remembrance of their baptism.” There has been some question about this. In response let me begin by bringing forward for your consideration the words of Dr. Timothy Maschke from [...]

How Lutherans Worship – 1: Invocation
[What I hope to bring forward in this series of posts is an exploration of not only the HOW and WHY of worship, but also the WHAT of what we do in worship. I will be looking at worship through the lens of the Divine Service and even more specifically, as it is practiced in [...]
