"It teaches what every Christian must know. So a person who does not know this catechism could not be counted as a Christian or be admitted to any Sacrament." -Luther on the catechism.
This lengthy study goes into many important teachings from Luther's Large Catechism. The entirety of the faith can be found in the 10 Commandments, the Creed, and the Lord's Prayer.
(Please note that this study began before the pandemic, which means that the medium recording has varied throughout.) Questions about the study? Please email Pastor Adam.
Hear about the doctrine of creation, the first article for the creed, and the creature-creator distinction. Note: this session starts with a video, see the link on the detail page.
Our discussion closes out the 10 Commandments, and moves on to the Creed. We also consider Luther's thinking in his purposeful arrangement of the Catechism.
We begin our consideration of the 9th and 10th commandments. Our closing discussion asks the question "How would a Christian living out these final commandments look different to our culture?"
