<p>August 29, 2023 Dear Friends, There are lots of people who are baptized, but they’re no longer Christian. Does that mean that Baptism is ineffective? A waste? Do we give too much credit to Baptism when we say that “it works forgiveness of sins, rescues from death and the devil,<span class="more-button"><a href="https://www.concordialcms.com/2023/08/29/questions-about-baptism-part-4/" class="more-link">Continue reading<span class="screen-reader-text">Questions about Baptism

<p>August 15, 2023 Dear Friends, This may seem too obvious, but hear me out: when you do your laundry, you’re washing your clothes. Notice what’s not happening. Your clothes are not washing you. And your clothes are not washing themselves. You’re doing all the work. Your clothes are doing nothing<span class="more-button"><a href="https://www.concordialcms.com/2023/08/15/questions-about-baptism-part-2/" class="more-link">Continue reading<span class="screen-reader-text">Questio
