What is confirmation and why do we do it? This week Scott and Todd start what will probably be an epic conversation about the ins and outs of confirmation in the Lutheran Church. They also talk about Bioethics, camping, first communion, Rev. Mark Surburg, and a few other random topics for good measure.
LINKS AND OTHER STUFF WE TALKED ABOUT
- Surburg’s first post about the history of confirmation
- Todd’s Outline on history of confirmation and first communion
- Proposed Pastoral Practice Regarding Confirmation and First Communion
- Lutheranism 101 for Kids
