Steve Starke – “Why We Love Hymns”
Hymns have been used by the church since before the New Testament was written and all Christians have learned to love them. But we do not always understand precisely what a hymn is, the purpose of hymns in the
life of the church, where our hymns have come from, why some hymns are cherished by the church and others not, and a host of other questions about hymns. Rev. Steve Starke will lead us as we discover the answers to these and many other questions we might have as to why the church has learned to love hymns.

Stewardship
1 Corinthians 9:16-27: St. Paul had the beautiful gift of showing such concern for others that he would refrain from doing what he was perfectly free to do so that the Gospel of Jesus would be better received by those to whom he was witnessing. One of the beautiful aspects of Christian stewardship is seeking and doing those things that are in the best interest and welfare of those around us!
Life Quote
“We need to provide much more support for overburdened mothers—personal, financial, social, and medical support—both before and after their child is born. We need to ensure that children who may be unwanted and unloved by their parents will be welcomed and loved by others in society and especially by the Church.” John Stott, English Christian leader and Anglican cleric – A “Life Quote” from Lutherans For Life · www.lutheransforlife.org
