Societas Cruces
Come join us as we explore the Christian life lived under the sign of the cross, where “the cross alone is our only theology.” Our speakers: Dr. Bielfeldt, Dr. Hein, and Mr. Miles have taught and lived such a Christian life. Our preachers feature the well-seasoned in Swenson and Rasmussen and the newly begun in Dawson and Little. There will be lots of time for discussion and questions. Expect plenty of interaction as we engage in the “conversation and consolation of the saints”— enjoying that means of grace delivered in the gathering of the priesthood of all believers.
