Lutheran Service Book, #358, stanzas 14-15

14 My heart for very joy must leap;
My lips no more can silence keep.
I, too must sing with joyful tongue
That sweetest ancient cradlesong:

15 Glory to God in highest heav’n,
Who unto us His Son has giv’n!
While angels sing with pious mirth
A glad new year to all the earth.

I found out about another Lutheran author for you: Rev. (David) D. Axtell Boyd! He’s published a novel and an accompanying devotional and is already working on his next. Yay!

In case you missed it in my weekend post, I’ve discovered another Lutheran author, Guillaume Williams. He’s a pastor who’s writing a bunch of liturgical devotional material! 🙂

I’m afraid everyone wants your money. (Though I mostly want your reviews. ;)) But if you’re open to Giving Tuesday, I’ll recommend two related causes:

• Concordia Mission Society, Inc., which was established in 1993 for the purpose of spreading the Gospel to the people living in Southeast Asia, including the Former Soviet Russian Republics of Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. It looks like if you give through this link it may be matched. 🙂
• GOOD NEWS theological journal, which pairs Lutheran theology with great visuals, is a great tool here in the United States but also used around the world (in 21 different language!). They have a Go Fund Me here, which is raising funds to replace materials lost in a fire a few years ago.

Once in a while I need to remind you about my books. 🙂 Available for purchase from CPH, Crossway, Ad Crucem, and Amazon.

I have two theology books for adults, three theology books for children, and book of theological poetry.

I also have a little “pocket devotional,” Dear Mother: Devotions for New Mothers through LWML.

Also, please consider reviewing books you appreciate. It can really help authors!

Ok. I already compiled Advent resources for the year here, but I found more. So I’m sharing again, an expanded version, especially since several of the books have digital formats available. 🙂

CPH is having a Thanksgiving/ Black Friday sale, including a substantial discount on my hardback children’s book, Whisper, Whisper: Learning About Church. 🙂 Only $5! That’s 62% off!

Nice. 

In other news, I meant to type up an updated list of Advent resources. So we’ll see if we get that done today.

I pray your Thanksgiving has been blessed! I’m thankful for you! And Lutheran books to read! 

I’ve heard about a few pre-Black Friday sales so I thought I’d share. Go ahead and comment on other Lutheran sales, if you’d like.
