Description
The Lutheran Heritage Lecture Series at LSTC seeks to discover what it might mean in the twenty-first century to be faithful--and critical!--daughters and sons of the Lutheran Reformation of the 16th century. An old Latin proverb went this way ecclesia semper reformanda, that is the church is always in need of reform. So faithful and critical leaders of today's church also recognize that the call for reform applies to their church and to themselves as leaders. As I have read Luther and works about Luther in preparation for this essay, I have been struck by the enormity of the subject and the finitude of time. A much more modest title for this lecture would be Some Reflections, after forty-two years of college and seminary teaching, on reading the Old Testament with Martin Luther, and without him.
