Life Together with Rev. Dr. Matthew C. Harrison

In this Life Together Digest, the Rev. Dr. Matthew C. Harrison, president of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, reflects on the Reformation’s rediscovery of the Gospel. Martin Luther was plagued by a “disturbed conscience,” a term found in the preface to the Book of Concord. He knew that he could not gain God’s favor based on his own actions, nor could he find solace in the works righteousness taught by the church of his day. Instead, Luther realized that he did not have to be perfect, because Jesus Christ took all his sins to the cross. “The Gospel is the source of a good conscience,” Harrison says, “and that’s what the Lutheran Reformation is all about — even to this very day.” View this month’s Life Together Digest at https://mailchi.mp/lcms/life-together...
