Passing Around Holiness (Maundy Thursday)

Passing Around Holiness (Maundy Thursday)

I honestly don’t remember Maundy Thursday hardly at all growing up, except one. That particular Lenten season, we were rotating where we worshiped for the midweek services, as well as Holy Week. But for this one, we gathered at that other Lutheran church on the other side of town: that other church with those high and mighty Lutherans. Of course, they probably would have said the same thing about my home congregation, but that’s a minor detail we’ll leave alone. Nevertheless, that other Lutheran church had the audacity to do something different during what is considered to be the Holiest Week of all. Instead of worshiping in their sanctuary with the beautifully crafted pews and the picturesque stained-glass windows and all the soul-soothing ambiance of the space; those other Lutherans had the audacity to make us worship in their fellowship hall basement....

Divinity Warmline

The Warmline is a recorded daily message to help us cope with life. We don’t always need a “hotline” geared for crisis and traumatic moments. But we all need a "warmline” somewhere to help us get in touch with ourselves, the church, and God. Goethe said, “One should, each day, try to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and if it is possible, speak a few reasonable words.” The Warmline helps us do just that! Each day’s offering includes an opening greeting, a devotional, poem, or scripture reading, Divinity prayer concerns, Divinity birthdays and anniversaries, and a closing prayer.
