For Teens and Those Young at Heart

We would like to share the following LCMS links.  They are geared toward teens and young adults.  The lessons are fast paced, and incorporate current video technology (flashy, funny YouTube videos, for example), all the while sharing the good news.

Committed to knowing nothing but Christ, and Him crucified for the forgiveness of sins… and wondering why the Church in America has forgotten …

Twice a week, almost every Tuesday and Friday, Reverend Jonathan Fisk, Youth Pastor, Bethany Lutheran Church, Naperville, IL presents fast paced and energetic apologies (explanations) on “All things Christian” er “All things Lutheran.”
