When pastors and laypeople truly understand the nature of the office of the holy ministry, God is gloried by His people and Zion experiences God's peace.

This blog will attempt to foster a fruitful public discussion on the role of laity in the support, encouragement, and defense of faithful ordained clergy who refuse to bow the knee to the idols of our day. 'For in our words we must speak modestly toward them and not address them roughly, haughtily, and defiantly, but yield to them and be silent.' (from Martin Luther's Large Catechism.)
Tuebor
Since all of the contributors to this blog are from Michigan, we have adopted the Latin phrase TUEBOR, the motto of our great state, because its meaning ("I will defend") expresses our desire to support, encourage, and defend faithful clergy who refuse to bow the knee to the idols of our day. [Tuebor pronunciation]

We greatly appreciate comments and publish them here the same way magazines handle letters to the editor. We post comments that: 1) make an interesting contribution to a topic, 2) we wish to take the time to respond to, and 3) are encouraging or fun. All comments are subject to editing for length and content.
Anyone who wishes to say more than what we are willing to feature as a comment is encouraged to do so on his own blog.

We welcome the submission of posts from guest contributors about topics related to the relationship between laity and ordained clergy. Please send all drafts to Tim, and our contributors will consider publishing them as guest posts.

Truer words were never spoken!
Today I met with a man who is married to one of my sheep. He is Baptist but attends here more than the Baptist Church. He's a pious, thoughtful fellow who has great respect for the Ministry. As I walked out the door, he told me "Keep up the good work."
Refreshing, isn't it. God grant us more people like him!
Amen.
