Treasures in The Treasury

I'm really looking forward to the next series of readings in Concordia Publishing House's wonderful devotional resource, The Treasury of Daily Prayer. (Find it at www.cph.org)

The readings for February fourth are:

1. Ps 127

2. Job 1.1-22

3. Jn 1.1-18

4. The Smalcald Articles, I and II.I

The Treasury is a wonderful resource for Lutherans; indeed, for all Christians. To my non-Lutheran friends I highly recommend another recent CPH resource, a new "reader's edition" of the collection of Lutheran confessional writings commonly called The Book of Concord (The Smalcald Articles are found herein.). The new "reader's edition," formally entitled Concordia: The Lutheran Confessions, is full of explanations, charts, woodcuts, etc. that help the reader understand the context. As we approach the 500th anniversary of The Reformation in 2017, and the wider interest in Luther that this anniversary will provoke, Concordia: The Lutheran Confessions (2nd ed) will prove to be a tremendous ecumenical resource.

Three cheers to CPH for making these wonderful new English resources available!!!
