A Reformation Sunday Musing

Today in church, while preaching in a Presbyterian church, I mentioned Reformation Sunday. It is not a tradition in this church to celebrate Reformation Sunday (more hereand here). I mentioned that oft repeated joke that we are Protestants and are still protesting.

During refreshments after the service, I get to talk to some of the members. One of them said that Protestants should not longer mean protesting. Protestants should mean professing and testifying. I like that thought.

Yea for you and your congregation. The thought of professing and testifying is truly a refreshment! Thanks for this sign of religious advancement.

Hi Cheryl,

Professing and Testifying is much more positive, don't you think?
