In episode TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY-TWO, Mike, Wade and Matt Scharf from Grace Lutheran in downtown Milwaukee discussed Luther’s Flood Prayer, often used for the Sacrament of Holy Baptism.
Saddle Up! In this episode, we discuss prayer and spiritual warfare while reading Dr. Ken Korby’s essay, Prayer: Pre-Reformation to the Present. We converse about the purpose and goal of prayer, what Jesus is doing when we pray, and how the Holy Spirit acts in and through prayer.
In order to respect both liturgical consistency and the role of the homilist in the drama of the Divine Service: Let the pulpit be for proclamation, not personal prayer.
