Finns, Lutherans and Faith

This post is primarily for those who shared in a time of Bible study and reflections this past week at Camp Luther, to provide some resources for further study and reflection.

On participation in Christ, the book I recommended was Union with Christ: The New Finnish Interpretation of Luther (1998).

For more on Sanctification, see Frank Honeycutt's Sanctified Living: More Than Grace and Forgiveness (2008).

For more on the parables, I think one of the best studies for the parish is Harry Wendt's The Parables of Jesus from Crossways International.

Finally, I was reminded as I picked up my copy of Lutheran Woman Today (a fine magazine, by the way, that all Lutheran women and men should subscribe to) of where I got some of my reflections for my few paragraphs on Bible study. They were originally published in Opening the Book of Faith: Lutheran Insights for Bible Study in the chapters by Mark Allan Powell. I did not want to pass off his work as my own. He also has an article in the September LWT magazine.

Thank you all for some wonderful insights into the Parables of Jesus!
