Show Notes:
Black lives matter. Let us as a Church realize this. Let us live like Christ and invite all into our home and treat them to a warm hearth and hearty food. Look into the gospel of Mathew, starting in chapter 7 and through chapter 10. Lets us strive to be open and listen to other people. Let us consider who we are as humans and Lutherans.
