Martin Luther's Evening Prayer
"An Unchanging Faith for Changing Lives" describes the message of God for us in the turmoil of the 21st Century. This faith is taught at St. John's Lutheran Church of Taylor, Michigan, and other congregations of the Lutheran church-Missouri Synod. Rev. Dr. Richard Zeile, Pastor at St. John's, applies the Word of God to our everyday experiences. God's LAW always accuses, but God's GOSPEL shows where grace can be found, through Jesus Christ who died for our sin, but rose that we may have eternal life.
Martin Luther's Evening Prayer
Isaiah 25:6-9 "What Are You Waiting For?"
This program begins with the John 20 account of "Doubting Thomas," followed by the contemporary hymn, "These Things did Thomas Count as Real." Then Dr. Zeile discusses what the people in Isaiah's prophecy were waiting for versus what individuals today are waiting for, and how this relates to the New Testament teaching that we walk by faith rather than by sight. The Easter hymn of faith, "I Know That My Redeemer Lives" (tune "Duke Street"), follows and the Nicene Creed and closing collect & blessing bring this devotion to an end.
