Ok, I know it's been a while since I've had a sermon to listen to online. That's because we've had 3 weeks in a row of "special" events. November 16th our Bishop, the Rev'd Dr. David Stechholz was guest preacher; last week while I was vacationing, the Rev'd Dr. Roger Pittelko was guest preacher; and finally, in honor of our 50th anniversary our founding pastor the Rev'd Dr. Martin Marty was our guest preacher.
Rest assured, now that vacations & special events are a thing of the past, I'll be back "on the air" regularly posting my Sunday sermons from LCHS.
Cheers,

About Me...what is an 'evangelical-catholic?'
- Pastor Tim Manwell
- Elk Grove Village, IL, United States
- I was born & raised in rural mid-Michigan (M-go blue!). Life & work have taken me to many different places. God has too, as I've come to learn that faith is a pilgrimage. I very much resonate with the label 'EVANGELICAL-CATHOLIC.' I was raised Baptist, but found myself drawn to the Sacraments & Liturgy of the Church. I appreciate very much the words of the Augsburg Confession: "...nothing has been received among us, in doctrine or in ceremonies, that is contrary to Scripture or to the church catholic." Evangelical-catholic is a term of self-designation used by Christians coming from a broad spectrum of theological perspectives and commitments, ranging from Lutherans, Anglicans, and various Evangelicals yearning for greater catholicity .....to faithful Roman Catholics longing for an evangelical renewal of the Church. Perhaps beneath the apparent denominational differences there lies a common...groaning of the Spirit of God, who is seeking to draw the members of Christ’s mystical body into a communal life that is both fully catholic and fully evangelical. One can always hope and pray!
