Happy Reformation day + 504 - the day the Gospel of grace alone by faith alone was returned to the Church. It’s all about Jesus! During confirmation we had to memorize the small catechism and face public questioning from the congregation on any aspect of it. 50 years later i still remember it.

Yes. Happy Reformation day! Great story. How many "rainbow" pastors now even know what a catechism is?

Thank you, and thanks be to God!
All of our five children have been brought into that pattern of words, too, which pattern requires and invites ongoing recitation and contemplation. Luther’s Large Catechism, meanwhile, is another source of ample edification especially in regard to the Commandments.

How Firm a Foundation ye saints of the Lord, is laid for your faith in His excellent word.
