Digging into our Lutheran roots and History in America
As we near the 500th anniversary of the Reformation and wonder what our mission as Lutherans is in our
current culture, it’s helpful to see how God has shaped the Lutheran church over time. Christ the King will
be using two dynamic resources from Select Learning to help our congregation understand where we have
come from and to support our life of faith and service in the world today.
‘Reformation Roots’ (DVD)
Do you ever wonder why we have so many Christian denominations and if there is really much difference
between them? The answers to these questions lie in the dramatic and turbulent times of the Reformation.
“Reformation Roots,” brings to life the stories and struggles that still impact us today.
‘We Must Plant the Church: The Story of Lutherans in America’ (DVD) When Lutherans came to America, they brought with them Martin Luther’s belief that people of faith
engage the big questions of the day. This story is characterized by the tension between honoring the
European roots of the church and adapting to the new realities of life in America. The Lutheran church, from
its earliest days, faced religious pluralism, intolerance, racism, war, lack of state support and diversity of
languages and traditions. It wasn’t easy then, and it isn’t easy now. Understanding American Lutheran
history can change the way we see ourselves and our future.
Please join us every Sunday morning at 9:25am!
