This leads to an theologies of baptism, deal with “a theology that” emphasis on baby drama, water drama, and other believed in “the necessity of baptism for salvation,” and congregational acts (pp. 24–26, 220).

Now we are in the storm, the boat almost swamped; but Jesus is here now, and when we call him, he will calm the storm. Even the wind and waves listen to him as they would to their creator. We also listen to him and are called to believe in the power of God’s word in him, a power greater than all that we fear. 2 GATHERING The Holy Spirit calls us together as the people of God.

Silence is kept for reflection. God, our provider, a help us. It is hard to believe there is enough to share. We question your ways when they differ from the ways of the world in which we live.

    The Seven Penitential Psalms (translation- The Grail Psalter) Ad privatum usum Cathedral of Saint Paul Saint Paul, MN Cathedral of Saint Paul 239 Selby Avenue Saint Paul MN 55102 Image of Cassiodorus from a 12thc English Manuscript The ancient tradition in the Church of the Penitential Psalmody (Psalms 6, 32, 38, 51, 102, 130, and 143) is rich. In the 5th century writings of Possidius, we learn that Saint Augustine: …ordered the Davidic Psalms, which are few in number concerning penance, to be copied for him, and lying in bed he used to look at those pages which had been placed on the opposite wall and read them, and wept profusely and con- tinuously (Vita S. Augustini, xxxi) The first unequivocal reference to the seven “penitential” psalms as a group dates back to Cassiodorus (d. 580 A.D.), in his Expositio Psalmorum. In his masterful commentary on the last psalm (143), he On the Front Cover. Uriah the Hittite receives a letter from wrote of the “course of their blessed tears” that has just been com- King David.

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.

  • Anxiety Can Visit but Not Rule
    1 April 2020 Anxiety Can Visit but Not Rule The disciples were afraid. How could they not be! They were in a small boat that was sinking because of a brutal storm. The wind was howling and the waves were crashing and filling the boat! On top of this, Jesus was asleep in the stern! Did he not care? How could he sleep? “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” “Peace! Be still!” After the calm registered in the eyes and minds of the terrified disciples, Jesus said, “Why are you so afraid? Have you still no faith?” (Mk. 4:35-41). This was not the only time that anxiety, or fear, visited the disciples. The Bible is filled with many others who feared greatly for their lives, feared that God had forsaken them, feared that they were doomed. Read the Psalms! It seems that anxiety sprang upon the earth the moment Adam crunched his teeth into the forbidden fruit. “I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself” (Gen. 3:10). Adam was right to be afraid of God in his sin, but with the promise of the seed of the woman, the Christ, anxiety was not to be his Lord, nor ours! How many times in the Bible does God say, “Do not fear,” or some variation? A lot! This is his declaration that he is Lord over all, including anxiety. Anxiety has paid us a visit again. The pandemic opened the door. For some, anxiety is more of an obnoxious house guest than for others.

  • German—English Lenten Singstunde
    German—English Lenten Singstunde 2010 Central Moravian Church Moravian Archives Moravian Music Foundation 2 A Singstunde is a traditional Moravian form of worship in which the congregation unites in singing a series of hymn stanzas. The stanzas are selected to develop a specific devotional theme. A Singstunde is sometimes referred to as “a sermon in song.” Many early Moravian liturgies used the form of the Singstunde. A popular Moravian liturgy was called O Sacred Head, Now Wounded. It combined this well-known hymn by Paul Gerhardt with verses from various other hymns. Until the early 19th century Moravians in Bethlehem sang this liturgy every Friday evening, as a weekly celebration of Good Friday. Tonight’s service is inspired by this liturgy. Stanzas are used from O Sacred Head, Now Wounded, combined with stanzas from other hymns. Also included in this liturgy are traditional Moravian liturgical elements from the Litany of the Life, Passion and Death of Jesus. The service concludes with the traditional ending of the Church Litany (parts of the Festal Doxology).

ISBN 978-951-51-0001-6 (PDF) 5 Esipuhe Tämä tutkimusprojekti käynnistyi unesta. Se ei ollut ilmestys eikä painajainen. Olin miettinyt tiiviin työrupeamani keskellä jatko-opintoja, mutta aihe oli täysin auki. Polun pää puuttui. Al- kuvuodesta 2010 yhtenä arkiaamuna herättyäni ensimmäinen ajatus oli, että tutkimukseni voisi käsitellä ordinaatiokaavoja. Unen sisältöä en muistanut, mutta tunsin välittömästi iloa ajatuk- sesta. Tässä on tie. Tämä ilo on säilynyt koko prosessin ajan väsymyksenkin hetkinä. En ollut aikaisemmissa opinnoissani työskennellyt ordinaatioteeman parissa, mutta virkateologiasta olin aina ollut kiinnostunut. Lähdin töiden ohessa ottamaan asiasta selvää. Pian huomasin, kuinka teema oli hedelmällinen ja Suomessa vähän tutkittu. Esitin ajatukseni prof. Jyrki Knuutilalle, joka innostui välittömästi asiasta. Hän osasi auttaa ratkaisevalla alkuaskeleella eli tutkimustehtävän rajauksessa ja on ollut tukena koko matkan. Kun tehtävä ja dispositio hahmottuivat, otin yhteyttä prof. Miikka Ruokaseen, joka avoimuu- dellaan rohkaisi tutkimussuunnitelman tekemiseen ja dogmatiikan jatko-opiskelijaksi. Luvan jatko-opintoihin sainkin vuoden 2010 lopulla. Prof. Ruokasesta tuli tutkimukseni valvoja. Toi- seksi ohjaajaksi prof. Knuutilan lisäksi nimettiin prof. Risto Saarinen, joka suurella ammatti- taidollaan on ollut apuna tutkimuksen eri vaiheissa. Prof. Ruokasen jäätyä virkavapaalle prof. Pekka Kärkkäinen vei avuliaasti projektin loppuun. Asiantuntevat ja tarkat esitarkastajat dos. Jari Jolkkonen ja dos. Kari Kopperi veivät kommenteillaan tutkimustani eteenpäin.
