Adult Bible Class -- New Series begins April 7

 Oh, Come, Let Us Adore Him!

          Why do Lutherans worship the way they do?  What makes us different?  Should we be different? 

Our next Bible study will be entitled, “Oh, Come, Let Us Adore Him!”  We will consider how the Bible lays the foundation for our worship so that we gain a greater appreciation for our Lutheran heritage.  After all, “We’ve always done it that way” is not a good foundation.  There has to be a reason we’ve done it a certain way.

All are welcome to consider these matters and to ask questions about “Why this?” or “Why that?”  You can even bring up criticisms you’ve heard or had, and we will assess if they are valid and how they can be resolved.  The tentative schedule is below:

April 7             WORSHIP: Why do we do it?

April 14           WORSHIP: A Service?  Who serves whom?

April 21           WORSHIP: Different Theologies: Glory or the Cross?
