Dr. John Rasmussen: How the Small Catechism Forms and Defends Christian Faith
from On The Line · host Bryan Stecker
Join us at the long table as we sit down with Dr. John Rasmussen to explore the enduring value of the Small Catechism in forming and defending the Christian faith. Rather than treating the catechism as a simple introductory text for children, Bryan and John examine how Luther’s catechetical framework continues to shape the Church's theological imagination. Moving through the Ten Commandments, the Apostles’ Creed, and the Lord’s Prayer, we consider how catechesis forms Christians to understand sin, confess Christ, and live within the life of the Church.Check Out Our New Website: https://ontheline.net/ Support the Launch of LIT: https://institute.ontheline.net/donation/ Visit Memento: https://memento70.com/ Contact Bryan: [email protected] Today’s Guest Dr. John Rasmussen serves as pastor of Holy Cross Lutheran Church.
