    What do you like most about the church you attend?

    I like that the church I attend is liturgical and conservative and that the pastor properly distinguishes between Law and Gospel in his sermons. The people are mostly older and they're all very nice! I had people coming up to me telling me they were praying for me daily and that almost made me...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 5

    I hope it turns out to be nothing major! I freaked out whenever my daughter was sick anyway when she was growing up and she didn't have any medical conditions! I still worry about her when I find out she's sick and she's 24 :)

    the buzz about alcohol

    Alcohol gives me an almost instant headache. I have plenty of friends telling me, "Cmon, one drink won't kill you and it'll make you feel better." No. It doens't. It makes me feel worse but they don't believe me or cannot accept that. My dad used to work for a liquor distributing company and...

    First President a Lutheran?

    There has only been one Vice President who was Lutheran and that was Hubert Humphrey. He was Lutheran but attended a Methodist church since there was no nearby Lutheran one.

    First President a Lutheran?

    English rather than Swedish? It makes sense because isn't Hanson more of an English name anyway?

    First President a Lutheran?

    Were any of your other relatives born in that town of Oxon Hill that might have been alive around the time of his death? The problem with a lot of European Lutheranism is that it doesn't resemble Lutheran beliefs very much since it's state run. I was on a Yahoo Group many years ago where some...

    Why celebrate Jesus birth on December 25?

    There is nothing wrong with celebrating His birth even though the disciples did not. No one in this thread says that Christmas is forced upon anyone. Even when I was in school we didn't force the Jewish kids to participate in any Christmas activities.

    First President a Lutheran?

    John Hanson was Swedish and even though he wasn't a German Lutheran, there are a lot of Scandinavian Lutherans! There was also a postal card and stamp to commemorate him!

    First President a Lutheran?

    English was also his second language. He was Dutch Reformed...was that the only Church at the time there? Not here. Sorry for the confusion.

    Why celebrate Jesus birth on December 25?

    The fact of the matter is that Jesus was born. He was born in the same way you and I were, through our mother's bodies. Our Savior humbled Himself to be born in the same manner as the rest of humanity. Our great King came to us in low condition. It's true there is no command to celebrate His...

    Ruth's Friendship Fellowship-Everyone Welcome, Come On In Part 4

    That's understandable. I have some friendships of people I met online for over 20 years now :) We had been on a community board (dial up) and met up at some of the get togethers. Some of us remained connected after the board dissolved and it's been a great blessing.

    First President a Lutheran?

    You have really done your research! Great job :) I appreciate the attempt to get the thread back on track. I like the information from the first thread that has this: Six other presidents were elected after him - Elias Boudinot (1783), Thomas Mifflin (1784), Richard Henry Lee (1785), Nathan...

    First President a Lutheran?

    No, and I've mentioned in a few other threads that you probably haven't read that recently so many are getting off topic and replies are ridiculous.
