Nothing from our Minister. We are Episcopalian. Actually liked her sermon based on today’s readings.

I’ve not been able to parse the distinction between Lutheran and Evangelical, but in the several Missouri Synod Lutheran congregations in which I have held membership since 1954 the political issues of the day were not ever sermon topics.

Always. But we do have a lot of “love your fellow fags” sermons.

Would this have anything to do with another thread on a similar topic or did you decide to ask this question in a moment of inspiration? Remember, lying is a sin. For what it’s worth I’m an active Baptist so in “the caucus.”

My pastor teaches from the bible, so no.

Most illegal aliens aren’t Protestant, or care enough for the rule of law that they would be interested in conversion, so there’s just no motivation for it.

Our pastor said he was going to give us the best sermon in his life and then proceeded to read us the sermon on the mount. He’s pretty tricky that way.

We’re going to go through the beatitudes for the next twelve weeks so I think we’re good.

Nope. The message I heard today at a church I visited was on reflecting the glory of God.

Not a word about illegals or amnesty, or anything political.

I'm curious to hear if anyone heard a pro-amnesty or pro-immigration-reform message in worship today.

Nope. The pastor is continuing to work methodically through Luke, with a discussion of the last supper, Luke 22:14-23.

Any reason we might be seeing something about immigration reform this Lord's Day, in certain circles?
