Thanksgiving in the Old Testament
By the Rev. Chad Bird Assistant Professor of Exegetical Theology, Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Ind.
We don't get very far into the Scriptures before God breaks the silence with a four-word speech: "Let there be light" (Gen. 1:3). After that, we continually encounter the God who speaks. |

By the Rev. Dr. Charles Gieschen Associate Professor of Exegetical Theology, Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Ind
Heaven is understood too often as a faraway place with which Christians have no contact until after death. The Book of Revelation, however, helps us to see that heaven is not an "up there" and purely "future" reality, but an accessible and present reality that we participate in through the Divine Service. |

By the Rev. Dr. Arthur Just, Jr. Professor of Exegetical Theology, Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Ind
Lord, teach us to pray, just as John also taught his disciples," asked one of Jesus' disciples (Luke 11:1). Jesus responded by teaching them the Lord's Prayer. |
