The altar had been removed from the chancel and put into a corner with a tarp over it. I saw this at Our Savior’s Lutheran Church, Palm Springs, California, an LCMS congregation that had adopted Church Growth methods.

The second ballot for LCMS president took place last weekend, and you can see the results here. When I found out I received enough nominations to be on the slate, I agreed to let my name stand.  It is an honor to be considered and I thought it was my duty to agree to be on the ballot.

There is an interview with an LCMS pastor that is illustrative of how modern mainstream Wokism - with its assumption of “systemic racism” - is incompatible with Christianity. This is especially the case for Christians who confess the Book of Concord, specifically, Luther’s Small Catechism.
