Anonymouse has left another clueless comment on your post "Rev. Kristen Administers the Means of Grace":
For someone who claims to be such a staunch Lutheran, your Ascension 'communion' service was a joke. You call that administering the sacrament? How do you do a baptism?
You may not agree with how some people are conducting church, but at least they can administer the sacraments. You should be ashamed of your behavior and hiding in your little box. Get out in the world. Start your own church instead of hiding your light.
I have posted on this subject before and I'm sure you will in cowardly fashion delete this as you have the others because you know that I am right and you have no defense. But you still have to read this and maybe some day it will sink in. Your arrogance will do you in.

Good evening Pastor,
What a beautiful Ascension Service! Thank you! It was very interesting the way you used the four Gospels and showed how they are each separate books but yet all mesh together. I really enjoyed everything.

GJ - Mouse - Check out the map on the Bethany blog. We are all over the world. I also teach all over the world. When I quote Luther to various religions and denominations, they never have hissy-fits.
The video services were created for those who wanted them. There has been no effort to keep them a secret. Every service is posted, not only with the saved video file, but also with the written sermon and The Lutheran Hymnal service.
In contrast, Church and Chicaneries:
- Hide their sermons, which are often copied from Groeschel, Driscoll, and others.
- Hide their sermon titles, which are copied verbatim from false teachers.
- Claim the sermons of others as their own, then hiding the evidence (Kelming and Parlowing).
- Buy manufactured Bible lessons from Mars Hill (Driscoll) and others.
- Offer no Lutheran content on their glitzy websites, but boast about being relevant, real, relational, comfy, cozy, and caffeinated.
- Mock the Means of Grace by offering their entertainment schemes as an antidote to Christ-centered, confessional, liturgical worship services.
- Devour subsidies in the name of mission, while scooping up members from sister churches in the name of evangelism.
Your Church Growth heroes of the past--Curtis Peterson, Mark Freier, Bob Schumann, Randy Cutter, Rick Miller, Kelly Voigt, et al.--have left the Lutheran Church or Christianity altogether.
That is quite a record. In this litigious society, in a secular setting, the professors at The Sausage Factory, The Love Shack officials, and the Doctrinal Pussycats would be defending themselves in court for destroying the corporation.
They have been court already, due to murder raps, MilCraft's insolvency (robbing widows), and the sexual abuse of minors.

Nice one, ya putz. As always you never addressed my charge about the sacraments. Instead you just parrot more of your own garbage. I looked at the viewer stats mostly in single digits. You call that reaching the world? Certainly you could do more in your community if you made half the effort you do now.
You are no more a Lutheran than those you run down and are just as guilty. You don't administer the sacraments because you can't and won't.

I too was encouraged by the breadth of the sermon. A special example was that the very disciples who had spent a few years in the presence of Christ were so weak in their own faith they went back to cowering behind locked doors or back to fishing to feed themselves.
Yet Christ came back to serve them again. "Feed my sheep," He said.
While some WELS pastors cavort with the Decisionists, Pr Jackson is showing that the disciples themselves couldn't make their own 'decision for Christ' stick. It took the Holy Spirit Himself to imbue them and to spread the Gospel.
