We are a Christian community practicing discipleship as we worship, learn and serve.
Faith is a living, bold trust in God's grace, so certain of God's favor that it would risk death a thousand times trusting in it. Such confidence and knowledge of God's grace makes you happy, joyful and bold in your relationship to God and all creatures. The Holy Spirit makes this happen through faith. Because of it, you freely, willingly and joyfully do good to everyone, serve everyone, suffer all kinds of things, love and praise the God who has shown you such grace. - Martin Luther

Meeting John the Baptizer: Truth Teller
A seminary classmate of mine, Jennie English, is pastor of a congregation in Chicago. She writes a great blog, and has a thought provoking post about the second week of Advent and its encounter with John the Baptizer. I commend it to you.
