A Case for the Holy Liturgy

Lutheran video interviewer Brian Stecker has made a laudable impact on the Lutheran landscape with his “On the Line” series, in which he has interviewed many Lutheran pastors and theologians.. Last summer he interviewed me at the Bugenhagen Conference in Racine, Wisconsin. We discussed the liturgy and its significance, as well as the trends in the LCMS and in congregational worship. The strife at St. Paul’s in Kewanee at the turn of the century was a microcosm of the battles throughout the Missouri Synod. Here’s the interview in its entirety.
