Luther Seminary is an excellent resource for all - you don't have to attend to take advantage! They offer many online courses that come straight to your email for free as part of their mission to help people grow in their faith and better understand the Bible. The courses are self-paced so you can do them on your own time or share them with friends, and family, or as a bible study. 

Their newest course is on the Book of Revelation which explores the context and background of Revelation; how to read the Book of Revelation; an outline and overview of Revelation; introductory issues and theological themes of Revelation.

Reflecting on the Stations of the Cross

3/15/2023

0 Comments

 
As the Lutheran Center is still under renovation, I have decided to create an activity for those looking for something new to facilitate discussion during Lent. The objective of this interactive activity is to help participants deepen their understanding and reflection on the Stations of the Cross.

Materials:
  • Pictures or illustrations of the 14 Stations of the Cross
  • Small strips of paper
  • Pens/pencils
  • Basket or container

Instructions:
  1. Start by explaining to participants what the Stations of the Cross are and their significance in the Church.
  2. Divide participants into small groups and assign each group a specific station of the cross.
  3. Give each group a picture or illustration of their assigned station, along with small strips of paper and pens/pencils.
  4. Instruct the groups to write down their thoughts and reflections on the station they are assigned. Encourage them to be as creative and detailed as possible.
  5. After about 10-15 minutes, have each group share their reflections with the rest of the participants.
  6. Once all groups have shared their reflections, collect the strips of paper and place them in a basket or container.
  7. Ask participants to pick a random strip of paper from the basket and read it aloud to the group. After each reading, take a moment to reflect on the reflection shared.
  8. Once all the strips of paper have been read, conclude the activity with a group prayer or moment of silence.

This activity is a great way to engage participants in reflecting on the Stations of the Cross and encourages them to think deeply about the meaning behind each station. It can also be a good opportunity for participants to share their thoughts and perspectives with others in a safe and respectful environment.

If you try out this activity, shoot me an email at rc@neos-elca.org or rwissler@neos-elca.org to let me know how it went!
