Got too cool in Michigan - had to come to Houston

Hey all!


First off, mucho apologies for no posts for many, many moons.  Busy is the default excuse, but it is what is is.  


Next, the news of the day is that I'm in Houston, TX for the triennial Synod Convention of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod.  Lots and lots of collars and black shirts (I don't really seem to fit in too well).  There's a lot of "business" that comes with the operation of an organization as big as our synod, so this is how we take care of it.  


One of the things that this reinforces for me is that as different as we all are as Lutherans, we still are in agreement on theology and doctrine, drawn directly from the Word of God.  That's what I believe sets us apart as Lutherans!  If we aren't in agreement on these "basics" of theology and doctrine, then we really aren't walking together in faith as Lutherans.  


I will blog each day with my thoughts as the days unfold.  Peace in Jesus our Savior.
