Martin Luther's Evening Prayer
"An Unchanging Faith for Changing Lives" describes the message of God for us in the turmoil of the 21st Century. This faith is taught at St. John's Lutheran Church of Taylor, Michigan, and other congregations of the Lutheran church-Missouri Synod. Rev. Dr. Richard Zeile, Pastor at St. John's, applies the Word of God to our everyday experiences. God's LAW always accuses, but God's GOSPEL shows where grace can be found, through Jesus Christ who died for our sin, but rose that we may have eternal life.

Lutheran Rite of Baptism
Lutherans, like the Early Church, believe that the power of God reaches us in the sacrament, making us His child in baptism. One does not need to be an adult to inherit salvation, though one must be taught its value; therefore Lutherans only baptize when there is the promise of continuing to grow in Christian faith with the Church, and this applies to adults as well as children.
