Praise for Treasury of Daily Prayer
The following note and letter were received from Presbyterian layman, Dan Delph. In giving me permission to share his words, it is his prayer that those who worked on Treasury of Daily Prayer are encouraged, and that as they move forward, “his Lutheran brothers and sisters” are encouraged as well.

Lutheran Identity? – a conversation starter
In the heady early days of Lutherans blogging I had just opened the predecessor of Blog My Soul for business and regularly participated in discussions on other’s blogs. One of these discussions ended up in a personal exchange, both in blog comments and in e-mail, with Andrew, a student at one of the seminaries who, at the time of the conversation, was serving as vicar. The purpose of posting the conversation is not to evoke a defense of the Scriptures or the Confessions, but to get you thinking about what is it that defines a Lutheran identity (vs. a Christian identity)? Is there a difference? And if there is, what does this mean for us as Lutherans?

Where can unity be found?
If we are all the same, the services we attend should be pretty much the same. And if all the Christians in the world are the same, if the church is really “catholic,” then the worship services throughout the world should be pretty close to the same. If the saints from age to age are the same, and they are, then the worship services from age to age reflect our oneness and sameness in Christ.
But, if worship is primarily me serving God, then my worship will be different than yours because we are different in our good works. Worship will then be far from uniform. If we get the direction of the communication right in worship then we will also understand that uniformity in worship is good.

How Lutherans Worship – 10: Excursus: What is Lutheran Worship?
The Lutheran Confessions teach that worship is a spiritual act, not an outward act. This spiritual worship is a trusting in God and a desiring of the forgiveness, grace and righteousness of God. The righteousness of faith truly honors and obeys God for through the Gospel (Word and Sacrament) the Holy Spirit overcomes distrust and creates faith.

Vatican sometimes out of touch, Lutheran tells synod
I snickered when I read this! How does the clearly out-of-touch LWF tell the Roman Catholic Church it is out of touch by upholding the ban against open communion? And the argument the LWFs representative?: faulty practice, that is practice out of line with RC theology, should be accepted and acknowledged to be good and [...]
