Martin Luther, 16th-century reformer, on Psalm 1:2's meditating day and night: "Thou shalt not kill" isn't merely prohibition, it's the positive duty of kindness and gentleness toward neighbour. Today this gets rebranded as "biblical manhood," where duty runs only to one's household, and Christian counseling rehearses grievances against entire classes of people so we can watch their demise more comfortably. A bold reworking of "meditate on the law of the Lord."

The United States Department of Homeland Security sent undercover agents to spy on community gatherings at two congregations of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America: Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, February 2026; and Zion Lutheran Church in Ann Arbor, Michigan, April 2026. The Trump administration is no friend of the Church.

Revised Common Lectionary preachers get to have fun this Sunday dealing with Jesus calling a Canaanite woman a dog and refusing to heal her daughter. Preaching's a lot harder when Jesus is a dick.

Gerhard—Lutheran scholastic theologian—identifies a contradiction worth sitting with. You wish to be a son of God, yet refuse to own God’s other sons as your brothers. He resolves the question of worthiness neatly: if the person deserves love, love them for that. If they don’t, love them because God—who does deserve everything—commands it. Even loving an enemy demonstrates friendship with God. The logic is airtight. The application is, apparently, optional.

Day 1 of the ELCA Rostered Ministers Gathering is behind, Day 2 is ahead. Last night began with worship over which the Reverend Yehiel Curry, Presiding Bishop of the ELCA, presided; and at which the Reverend Canon Stephanie Spellers, Episcopal priest, preached. I was honored to help prepare and participate in that worship. #elca #lutheran #elcarmg26 #woventogether

Baugher reads Luke 16 with irritation: the rich man, condemned to hell, still tries ordering Lazarus about, as though nothing changed but his location. His heart stayed the same—still despising Moses. Today that charge gets redirected at those who suggest the rich should behave differently. The original target evades it entirely.

Luther on 1 Peter 1:22: why live a chaste and holy life? Not to earn salvation—to be useful to your neighbor. A pure life makes one more useful; it’s harder to be useful when consumed by messing around. The love here is usefulness to the neighbor, ideally recognized as such by them. Not scolding them about their unchastity and calling that love. Luther would have noticed the difference.

Luther observes that the communicants filing to the Lord’s Supper on Sunday are, by Monday, scraping, grabbing, and scratching across every level of society. He finds this a sin and a shame. Today we’ve tidied this up considerably: one may join a party that deplores poor scratchers, or one that deplores rich grabbers, and in either case feel entirely absolved. Luther, characteristically, was not offering that option.
