We are Lutheran’s, not Reformed (inside baseball).
The recent drum role of cultural crises has galvanized the LCMS hierarchy lately. It is putting pressure on a lot of pastors and parishes (including my own) to make a stand. Most are saying, in true fashion “Here I stand, I can do no other! SO HELP ME GOD!”
Also, as a synod, we were founded when the Kaiser started to get cute with religion and culture. There is a reason the original Saxons ended up in Missouri, and it wasn’t a happy one. Same with some of our sister Synods in Russia and Australia.
My son is currently in the LCMS seminary There is another generation of well trained Godly young men rising up to take the banner forward It is a great blessing to see
I always liked the LCMS and the LCWS. :)
