Preaching the Catechism in Lent: Commandments & Creed

from Preaching The Text

On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson discuss how to preach the Catechism during the season of Lent. This traditional practice for Lutherans is an excellent way to find God's two words, law and gospel, first in the Commandments (what God commands us to do) and then in the Creed (what God has done for us). These two words anchor our preaching and teaching of God's word.
