Join us as we go through the last document in the Book of Concord, which is called "The Formula of Concord." After Luther's death, the Evangelical Lutheran church was not as solid as one might think. Satan wasn't finished harassing Christ's church, whether it was via persecution (involving prison, war, and death), or old heresies in new clothing, or finally personality conflicts within. Lutheranism doesn't evolve over time. By the grace of God, it returns to the source (the Scriptures) again and again, finding there true strength and unity. (i.e. "Concord") We will introduce some of the next generation of Lutherans and introduce the Formula of Concord,

Pastor William Harley and Pastor Dave Ruddat welcome Pastor James Enderle to talk about the War on Your Christmas.

What are you looking for in your church family? Rules and rule keepers? What if they're a bunch of hypocrites and rule breakers? When disillusioned about church or church member behavior, let's get back to the basics of what the church is all about, the Gospel's comfort in as many ways as possible: Baptism, Lord's Supper, Keys, and Confession. Even when the church excommunicates it's about the Gospel. Join the Conversation!
