For a while now I've been aiming for the title of Lutheran Blogger with the Most Bad Things to Say about Luther. But I take a break from that quest to point out something that Luther was very, very good at.

An alert reader asked via email what to do about the Annunciation falling on a Sunday in Lent this year (Judica even - the beginning of Passiontide). Here's how I responded. 

How can I not have read this before? What a travesty. I feel cheated. It's probably Petersen's fault. He's read it before, I bet. Read the whole thing. It will take you a while, but it is very much worth it.

Just a few notes as the SID convention enters its last day. 1. Once again, a resolution asking the Synod to get a plan together to end "lay ministry" will be headed to HQ. This was overwhelmingly passed in 2010 as well.

A couple of good things from the seminaries lately. First, since CTQ started getting caught up about a year and a half ago, the issues have been amazing. The last two are especially wonderful.
