My name is Dennis. I am an elder at Indian Valley Lutheran Church. I have decided to start a blog regarding topics that Lutheran Christians might find interesting. The goal of this blog is to promote historic Christianity as expressed in the Scriptures and in the Confessions of the Lutheran Church. This teaching is based in a proper balance of Law and Gospel and the full understanding that we, in our humanity, are totally depraved and can not begin to move towards God because we are separated from Him by sin. But God in His gracious mercy has not left us dead in our trespasses, but has sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to be born, suffer, die, rise again and ascend into heaven so that you and I may have eternal life. He then gives us the gift of the Sacraments and in Holy Baptism daily forgives us of our sins on account of Christ, and then continues to feed us with His most precious Body and Blood in Holy Communion.
I pray that this site will be a place for you to be edified in your faith and may we continue to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
To God be the Glory!
Dennis
