[Episode #4] Please join us for our next broadcast of A Lutheran Layman where we'll spend some time discussing the following (in no particular order) in an episode we're calling "Things Christians Say (But Shouldn't)"... * "Prayers And Patristic Quotes" A Prayer from my Lutheran Book of Prayer and a quote from C.F.W. Walther to help set the tone... * "Homilies, Sermons, And Bible Readings Oh My!" A new feature! Today, we take a look at a 2007 piece written by Pastor Todd Wilken from Issues, Etc. titled "Things Christians Say (But Shouldn't): How Christian Cliches Show And Shape What They Really Believe" and if you're anything like me, then you'll cringe once you realize how many cliches come out of our mouths that we never think about, but that are certainly un-Biblical. (CHRISTIAN CLICHES: "WWJD?"/"What Would Jesus Do?"; "The J-Word"; "Selling Books To Christians: The Gerund"; "The 'Person' In 'Personal'"; "Jesus, Be My Valentine!"; "Works, Not Faith"; "A Church Of, By, And For...Boomers"; "The Pattern of Sound Words") Of course, we'll take your comments, questions, and prayer requests on-air as time permits.
