Luther's Theology Of The Cross

Pastor Chris Seay considers the life and teachings of 16th century church reformer Martin Luther and the critical turning point for our understanding of the Cross. When we realize that the justice God demands, he also provides, we become freed (as Luther experienced) from places of anxiety and fear, and into a deeper living faith.

Reflection & Practice

Pastor Chris invited us to learn from Jesus and lean into places of tension without feeling the need to resolve it. He prompts us to sit with others in their pain and grief without offering “comforting” platitudes or solutions. Share your experience of someone sitting with you in this way. Where and with whom is God calling you to be that presence?
