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

Online Devotions

We are nearing the end of The Great Fifty Days - the season of Easter. This Sunday, May 31st, is the Day of Pentecost, and then we enter the "long green season" of Bible readings about life as disciples of Jesus (from Advent - Easter our lectionary mostly focuses on the life and ministry of Jesus. Druing the second half of the year there's more of a focus on the life and ministry of the Jesus's church. That's us).
A seminary classmate of mine writes a weekly "e-vo" - an electronic devotion. You can find it here.
And if you're still trying to get into a rhythm of daily Bible reading, know that you are in my prayers this week!
