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.

Philippians 2: "Paul's Meditation on the Cross"
The Service of Evening Prayer (Vespers) includes the Lenten hymns "O Christ, You Walked the Road," and "Lamb of God, Pure and Holy," sometimes called the "German Agnus Dei." The meditation is based on Paul's words regarding the Christ's humiliation to the death of a criminal on the cross and the great reversal of His exultation to Divine Authority which will be acknowledged by all creation.
