Let's Read the Book of Concord Together!

Why should we read the Book of Concord? The Rev. Brady Finnern, President of the LCMS Minnesota North District and host of Concord Matters from KFUO Radio, joins Andy and Sarah to talk about the 2025 Book of Concord reading plan he wrote for The Lutheran Witness, including what he's learned while hosting Concord Matters and studying with fellow theologians, the most challenging aspect of reading the Book of Concord, what makes the Formula of Concord and the Epitome of the Formula of Concord unique, and what we need to know before digging in. Find the Book of Concord reading plan at witness.lcms.org/2024/reading-plan and files.lcms.org/file/preview/formula-of-concord-reading-plan. Find Concord Matters podcast episodes at kfuo.org/category/concord-matters. As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let’s be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world. Catch real-life stories of mercy work of the LCMS and partners, updates from missionaries across the ocean, and practical talk about how to live boldly Lutheran.
