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.
Martin Luther's Evening Prayer
Mark 1:9-15 Ups and Downs
The Litany is prayed in procession, an ancient prayer imploring God for every blessing temporal and spiritual. Dr. Zeile's message reflects on the varieties of experience in Mark's brief account of a few days in Jesus' early ministry and how typical this is of human experience in general. Truly God has entered our condition! The St. Columba hymn "Christ is the World's redeemer," and a brief celebration of Holy Communion follow.
