ICHABOD, THE GLORY HAS DEPARTED - explores the Age of Apostasy, predicted in 2 Thessalonians 2:3, to attack Objective Faithless Justification, Church Growth Clowns, and their ringmasters. The antidote to these poisons is trusting the efficacious Word in the Means of Grace. John 16:8. Isaiah 55:8ff. Romans 10. Most readers are WELS, LCMS, ELS, or ELCA. This blog also covers the Roman Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodoxy, and the Left-wing, National Council of Churches denominations.

Artful Dodger Suggests SMP Plus a Real Academic Degree.
Maybe Missouri Could Spend Millions
On Something Worthwhile

I had to send this link to you in view of your recent posts on the cost
of seminary education. Incidentally, shouldn't you be recommending that
LCMS students deliberately take the SMP (all the alternative methods to
ordination) routes since they seem to save a lot of money? (You can
always go to school elsewhere for the academic degrees once you are
certified.)
Also I wonder if the AFLC (free church) seminary (Green Lake, MN) isn't
a lot cheaper?

This link between infection and some forms of insanity seems important
for pastors to be aware of. Just being able to comfort someone, that
this is a disease and not demon possession for example, would seem to be
important. Hopefully there will soon be actual cures.
