When I first signed up for CH I chose 'Lutheran' as my faith icon because I am officially a member of a Lutheran congregation. I changed it to 'Christian' because there were so many denominational debates going on here. I enjoy discussing theology but felt there was too much hostility between...

I would agree but then so would LDS & JW’s. That’s why the early church fought against heresy with it’s ecumenical creeds.

My daughter had a c-section so she won’t be released from the hospital until Monday or Tuesday. We’re going to let them get home and settled in before flying up to see the little guy :stars:

5am pst Nov. 18th 2017, 8lbs 4oz, 20.5” long!

Well my daughter was admitted into the hospital and they've started inducing her. If she doesn't have this baby today it will be for sure before the weekend is over.

I can agree with that Mary > Luke 1:42 & John the baptist Matthew 11:11

Knowing my luck it would go off as I’m putting it on and knock me out :dead1:

Happy belated birthday! :cake2:

Okay I admit it you know my shoe size cause it sure fits Lol! :who me: Seriously English is my wife's second language but she is a better English speller than I am :focus:

Wow that’s crazy. Like you need to deal with this on top of everything else.

We have a Maronite parish and I think their liturgy is one of my favorite liturgies. Also the consecration of the elements in Aramaic is very special.

Yes, when I capitalize the ‘c’ in Catholic I’m referring to Roman Catholism. When I use the lower case ‘c’ I’m referring to the historic universal church that which was believed everywhere, always and by all. That being said with my leanings towards Orthodoxy (again capitalized) I’m undoubtedly...

I hope you’re right. We’ll have to wait and see. There are perfectly fine Catholic congregations in my area but I don’t see me ever agreeing with papal primacy or the immaculate conception.

I struggle with this everyday. My wife and I are members of a Lutheran church and there's a lot we are drawn to it by. Not only within Lutheranism but this particular congregation especially. However I have a strong draw towards Orthodoxy and attend a service or two a week at an Antiochian...

Hi all :wave: Just got a text from my daughter who said she is scheduled to be checked into the hospital today at 11am pst. About 30 minutes from when I'm posting this thread. She was officially due November 16th but we're glad the little guy has stayed put this long. Prayers would be appreciated

Oh ok, I was out of sequence to what post you were commenting on. Now I get it. But as far as wearing red and the practice of Lutheran liturgical color of red is observed the closest Sunday to October 31st commemorating Dr Luther's nailing of the 95 thesis on the Wittenburg Cathedral door. The...

First that's 'Dr.' Luther by the way :heheh: and with all the blood shed on both sides of the aisle I think red is well earned.

Seriously, I would of thought you knew that concerning Lutheran liturgical colors. I thought you were just making conversation and I hadn't had time to respond yet.

The liturgical color for Pentecost is red :roll:

The last night they had a Lutherfest, which is basically an Octoberfest Lutheran style and today the liturgical color was red.
