In this Gottescast, The Gottesdienst Crowd welcomes it’s newest blogger, William Weedon. He is the assistant pastor and catechist of St. Paul Lutheran Church, Hamel, Illinois, and will be the host of a new podcast "The Word of the Lord Endures Forever" on Lutheran Public Radio. Our discussion covers the history and importance of The Common Service, and why it should serve as the main order of the Divine Service in our congregations still today.

Here are some links to articles on The Common Service:
