Life Together with President Harrison

As 2016 comes to a close, President Harrison shares encouraging words as we serve our neighbor in this Advent and Christmas season. There is wonderful news out of Madagascar and an exciting opportunity to speak out for life as we join together in good faith with other Christians and non-Christians this January at the March for Life, followed by our Life Conference. And don't miss the new outreach resources available from our various ministries.

A new manual for church planting, the 2016 Convention proceedings and a new resource from CPH on sexual morality. Journey around the country with a video telling the story of Rural & Small Town Ministry and see images from the LCMS response to Hurricane Matthew in Haiti.

Coming to you from the steps of Luther's university in Wittenberg, Germany, President Harrison has a wide variety of news and resources to share. Don't miss out on this month's edition of Life Together!

In our trying times, it is good to remember that faith is a living daring confidence in God's grace, so sure and certain that a believer would stake his life on it a thousand times. This edition of Life Together introduces the new life campaign - #eyesoflife - as well as the Lutheran Federal Credit Union, a fantastic new resource designed to serve our members specifically.

The unity on issues such as preaching, communion, marriage and abortion that was shown at our National Convention was truly encouraging. Legal challenges may face our churches and we're providing resources to help. But today we encourage you to grab hold of the Scriptures in these wild times. It's time to "get at it! Let's make sure the we, the original Protestants, know our Scriptures."

President Harrison shares some thoughts on the recently completed LCMS presidential election and what the LCMS will be focusing on the next few years.

Are we seeing a religious litmus test for serving in public office? Recent events may suggest we are. Also, in this edition of Life Together, see how the LCMS is sending missionaries into challenging settings in the United States, including Ferguson, Mo., and hear what one man considers to be the best job in the world. All this and more in this month’s Life Together Digest with President Harrison.

Christ came to seek and to save the lost, which is our mission as the church. As we move towards Easter, we remember that Death has already been deprived of his power. The hard part is over, the resurrection is near and it is as if we have only a little toe in the grave! God grant you a blessed Easter in the name of Christ.
