I just wanted to tell you how embarrassed I am of you. I am embarrassed that you are Lutheran and that you call yourself Christian. Some of your favorite books are written by Martin Luther and other church fathers yet you speak of people the way you do. I see nothing but the breaking of the 8th commandment and certainly an unwillingness to forgive those you criticize. It is clear you are in this to slander people, not to guide back to God's word in a loving Christian manner. Matthew 18 certainly doesn't say post pictures and slander them...
Shame on you

GJ - Made my day.
All the Church and Change talking points are there. Funny, the Appleton blogger raves in the same way but creates toilet pictures with faces on them, directs personal insults at my readers, and begs them to turn away from the eev-ul Ichabod. So persuasive. So satirical. So Evangelical.
The Appleton blogger has not made a case for all the Schwaermer unionism going on in his circuit.

If this fellow is going to flog you with the 8 and 18 switch, he ought to at least swing hard enough to break your flesh open. This was a really pathetic attempt to treat you in the typical WELS way of dealing with dissenters. Shame on him.

Good morning Pastor GJ. I have been away from home(and computer)for a few days. Our airconditioning unit went on the brink, so we were forced to spend two nights at a relative's home. Like Pastor GJ, my aunt is getting rid of several books. Perhaps Pastor GJ would be interested in Lucado or Sorge?(No?...I understand!) "Fake Name" might like reading works by non-Lutheran writers. Yes, this blog contains a lot of satire, yet it is FULL of Lutheran doctrine, Scripture, and historic writtings of Christianity. Pastor Jackson shares the Word when he posts his sermons for all to see. The Holy Spirit guides us. From this forum I was guided to Intrepid Lutherans. Blogs are a tool, so I moved to the second phase of speaking to pastors and laity in person. That was a scary thought six months ago.("Trust in the Lord") I have been on the receiving end of the 8 and 18 switch. That trick is so old, the pastors who administer it must be kidding themselves.
Hey, what about Mark Jeske partaking in the LCMS convention? I will put the worst construction on it. The Feedback of Forward In Christ A Lutheran Voice, would be an excellent place to shed light on the Jeske/LCMS madness. I will concede a bit, I sent my pre-schooler to a local Confessional LCMS school. Yet Jeske is hanging with the liberal wing of LCMS. It is no secret, I have prayed at the school and have participated in Chapel Services? Is this right or is this violating fellowship rules?
In Christ,
from WELS church lady

Maybe the "awakened" in WELS will use the recess time for individually and publicly acting on documented information which will either result in involuntary departure one way or the other, or serious consideration about voluntary departure.

WELS church lady, the fellowship principles in WELS are a joke, in the sense that they exist only on paper and are not enforced. I would pray with and take communion at a confessional LCMS church before I even step foot in a Church & Change congregation like The CORE, let alone pray with them or take communion from one of their pastors like Ski.
