Out of the Barn!

The Trinity issue of Gottesdienst has left the stable, and bolted from the barn!  But behold, it's a brand new barn!  We have employed the services of a new printer, JG Imprinters, which means that for most of our readers, the journal will be appearing soon in your mailbox without an envelope.  We hope this doesn't create any difficulties, and we don't expect it to.  We couldn't pass up the savings it means for us.  We already operate on a shoestring (to donate, please click here!), so this savings is really sort of a necessity, and hopefully without any reduction in quality.  In fact, some of you readers might even be getting your issue before we even get to see it ourselves, since they're mailing the packages with multiple copies to our office on the same day as the bulk mailing goes out  (they say that bulk mail usually takes 2-3 weeks, but sometimes it's much quicker).  Not a subscriber?  Well  then, sign up today.

    Reading Pr. Petersen's "Praying for Pity's Sake." President Harrison was also teaching about "splagchnon" (sorry I don't know how to type Greek) at the MO District Convention only a couple of days ago, either during the Divine Service sermon or at the Bible study. I enjoyed both Petersen's article and Harrison's preaching.

    I haven't gotten my issue yet, but looking at the above table of contents, I have a question: Would it be possible to get Fr. Eckardt's article ("What Exactly is Wrong") *without* the praise music? This whole "relevant" thing has gone too far.
