  • The Musical Heritage of the Lutheran Church Volume I
    The Musical Heritage of the Lutheran Church Volume I Edited by Theodore Hoelty-Nickel Valparaiso, Indiana The greatest contribution of the Lutheran Church to the culture of Western civilization lies in the field of music. Our Lutheran University is therefore particularly happy over the fact that, under the guidance of Professor Theodore Hoelty-Nickel, head of its Department of Music, it has been able to make a definite contribution to the advancement of musical taste in the Lutheran Church of America. The essays of this volume, originally presented at the Seminar in Church Music during the summer of 1944, are an encouraging evidence of the growing appreciation of our unique musical heritage. O. P.

The Missionary Sphit in the Augustana Church George F. Hall \ THE MISSIONARY SPIRIT IN THE AUGUSTANA CHURCH The American church is made up of many varied groups, depending on origin, divisions, changing relationships. One of these was the Augustana Lutheran Church, founded by Swedish Lutheran immigrants and maintain­ ing an independent existence from 1860 to 1962 when it became a part of a larger Lutheran community, the Lutheran Church of America. The character of the Augustana Church can be studied from different viewpoints. In this volume Dr. George Hall describes it as a missionary church. It was born out of a missionary concern in Sweden for the thousands who had emigrated. As soon as it was formed it began to widen its field. Then its representatives were found in In­ dia, Puerto Rico, in China. The horizons grew to include Africa and Southwest Asia. Two World Wars created havoc, but also national and international agencies.

  • December 2016
    901 SW Fillmore | Topeka, Kansas 66606-1445 | 785.354.7132 | www.stjohnlcmstopeka.org VOL. 100 NO. 12 MONTHLY DECEMBER 2016 JR. LUTHERAN QUIZ As I investigated the Lutheran distinctives, I was relieved to see the emphasis Luther placed on fathers teaching the Christian faith to their children. Each Chief Part of the Small Catechism declares, “As the head of the family should teach his household…” It echoes my own conviction about what Scripture teaches. Indeed, during my time as a non-denominational church pastor I was constantly teaching our fathers how to teach the Christian faith to their little ones by the use of various catechisms. We even stepped it up a notch when our parents and children participated in a Bible Trivia match, utilizing competition against other churches. Other churches in our area memorized the same questions and answers, allowing us to compete on both the State and National levels. This ministry was an important piece in teaching the faith to our children. After discussing my experience with Pr. Bruss, we are creating something similar specifically for those children ages, 6 to 11. We want to instill in them the Bible knowledge as well as highlighting the Lutheran difference so that when Pr. Bruss, Deaconess Linda and I have those same children in catechism class, there is plenty to build upon. HOW IT WORKS: First, children and their parents (parents are key to success with this!) begin working on memorizing the questions and their answers. These are simple questions, with many answers containing only one word. When my children were little we reviewed questions at meals, throughout the day and at bed time.

  • When I Think of Earthquakes, California Comes to Mind
    THE TORCH Trinity Lutheran Church Wichita, Kansas Church Office Telephone– (316)685-1571 Email Address [email protected] SUNDAY SCHEDULE 9:30AM Sunday School and Bible Class 10:30AM Hospitality in Fellowship Hall 11:00AM Divine Service “Sharing Christ’s Salvation Story So That Every Soul is Saved.” Passing on Tradition… “Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:8 While most parents would call their kids ―the light of their eye‖ or their ―greatest joy;‖ children can be a handful. They have a way of testing every nerve, teaching us real patience. Young children seem to act up exactly when we want them to behave most—for instance, at Church. What do you do with toddlers who‘d prefer not to sit still, to listen attentively, or keep quiet? Do you keep them in the sanctuary, causing, what seems to be a disturbance? Do you bribe them? Or, do you take the easy way out, not coming at all—waiting ‗til they get older? Attending Church with children can be difficult—a nightmare, even. But is it worth it? Yes; by all means, yes! It‘s worth every drop of sweat trying to keep them in line. It‘s worth every shred of pride and dignity you feel you‘ve lost for your child acting up. It‘s worth it all—every hassle, struggle, and embarrassment. Why? Well, for many reasons, but two in particular. First, because this is part of their learning, their growing in the faith.

  • 3-Step Plan Article #7 the Full Plan
    !1 of !71 File Name: "3-Step Plan Article #7 The Full 3-Step Plan"' PART ONE, 22 pages. PART TWO, 49 pages. AN ANCIENT TRIED AND TESTED THREE-STEP PLAN FOR INCREASING THE SPIRITUAL (INWARD) AND NUMERICAL (OUTWARD) GROWTH OF LUTHERAN CONGREGATIONS BY PROCLAIMING THE GOSPEL VERBALLY AND NONVERBALLY 24 HOURS A DAY Most evangelism programs do not work, and as a result many Christians feel guilty for not having personally witnessed to more people. This plan is an ancient plan because it was used by Israel of old and by the Christian Church from the day of its inception, and works because it communicates Law and Gospel nonverbally as well as verbally, and does it 24 hours a day year around. Face to face witness is not required, but the Plan enables even small children to do it easily and naturally. There are two parts to the Plan PART ONE is a description of the Three-Steps of the Plan, written by Philip James Secker. 22 pages. PART TWO is a monograph written by Arthur Carl Piepkorn about the architectural requirements of Lutheran worship, and edited by Philip James Secker. 49 pages. The page and footnote numbers run consecutively through both of Parts without starting over so the user can computer search the entire document and easily move from PART ONE to PART TWO and back.

The answers were somewhat different than the Barna Survey. What About Angels? This brief study by late Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod president Al Berry shares what the Bible reveals about angels- both holy and evil.

  • THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE at the Time of Luther
    THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE at the Time of Luther The Holy Roman Empire, a loosely-joined union of smaller kingdoms, held power in western and central Europe between A.D. 962 and 1806. Ruled by a Holy Roman Emperor who oversaw local regions controlled by a variety of kings, dukes, and other officials, the Holy Roman Empire attempted to resurrect the Western empire of Rome. However, it was not holy, not Roman, and not an empire. Many people confuse the Holy Roman Empire with the Roman Empire that existed during the New Testament period. Pope Leo III laid the foundation for the Holy Roman Empire in A.D. 800 when he crowned Charlemagne as emperor. In 1512 the name “Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation” became the official title of the empire, which spanned central Europe between the EMPEROR CHARLES V kingdom of France to the west and the kingdoms of Hungary and Poland to the east. In the north it was bounded by the Baltic and North Seas and by the Danish kingdom; in the south, it reached to the Alps. The emperor entered his position by election. Just as the cardinals, princes of the church, chose each new pope, so the leading princes of the empire, called electors, chose their emperor. The fundamental law of the empire limited the right to elect the emperor to seven leading princes: three e Seven Electros ecclesiastical electors, the archbishops of Mainz, Trier, and Cologne; and four lay electors, the king of Bohemia, the duke of Saxony, the margrave of Brandenburg, and the count Palatinate of the Rhine.
