ANNOUNCEMENTS:

  • LUTHERAN CONFESSION SERIES JUNE 1-2  It has become commonplace upon death to have a funeral home director recommend both embalming and cremation.  Almost all the dead are embalmed and over fifty percent of bodies are now cremated.  What does scripture teach?  Come to the 28th installment of Lutheran Confession Series at Trinity Lutheran and learn about these timely topics.  Presenter will be Pastor Michael Brockman of Immanuel, Wichita.
  • Kansans For Life Baby Bottle Project runs from Mother’s Day to Father’s Day. Each participating household receives a baby bottle on or before Mother’s Day, along with suggested prayers for life. Participants pray at home and place spare change, bills or checks inside the baby bottle. On or after Father’s Day, return baby bottles to Trinity. Proceeds support pro-life educational efforts of Kansans for Life and selected pregnancy resource centers in our state.  Bottles are located in the narthex.

ISSUES, ETC. JOURNAL Is good theology like a pendulum or a plumb line? Does good theology react to error by swinging in the opposite direction or by returning to and remaining on the true line of God’s Word? In this edition of the Issues, Etc. Journal, I recount my years spent reacting to the errors of evangelicalism rather than returning to the plumb line of God’s Word.

Also in this edition, the chief administrative officer of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, Felix Loc, tells his story of coming to confessional Lutheranism from Catholicism through evangelicalism and Reformed theology. His is a journey from reliance on sincerity and knowledge to a reliance on Jesus Christ.
