There's absolutely no need for more blogs. The world is full of them. However, I'm beginning this one with a peculiar bent-- the view from a Lutheran hermitage. My hermitage is not a hut in the desert (though a desert island hut sounds awfully inviting...) but rather, the humble and peaceful home carved out in a raucus world. My hermitage is an intentional break with the spirit of the age, and an attempt to create some barriers between those who need the peace and grace of Christ, and those who exhaust themselves in the pursuits of shadows.
My intentions are to reflect from a confessional perspective, upon the faith once for all, delivered to the saints, and the relationship of that faith in the wilderness of modernity in which we live. In so far as this hermit's observations are of value to you in pointing you toward Christ, may they bless you. Whatever is sinful and suspect, may it be purged away.
