My former youth pastor and now bishop of the Gulf Coast Synod is the featured blogger for Living Lutheran - LivingLutheran.com. I was the featured blogger yesterday. Check it out!
I just read Mike's blog post and the last paragraph really hit me following the tragedy in Norway: "It also reminds me that for James, faith without works is dead, but for Paul, faith without love is dead. Faith for faith’s sake can, in fact, be dangerous. It leads to inquisitions and crusades. Faith for love’s sake is what really matters." The perpetrator had plenty of faith, but no love. Chilling.
