St. Augustine: A Voice from the Past That Still Speaks Today

When we speak of the Reformation, our minds naturally turn to Martin
Luther and that fateful day in 1517 when he posted his 95 Theses.

There’s something about this season that invites us to slow down, reconnect, and savor the gifts God gives us, especially the blessings of family and friends.

As we continue to grow as a church family here at Holy Lamb, let’s lean into this ministry of welcome.

Spring is in full bloom here in Myrtle Beach, and with it comes
the promise of new life. The warmer air, the budding flowers, and
the longer days remind us of renewal and hope.

I’ve always found the number 40 in Scripture fascinating. It
marks times of testing, transition, and transformation. Think about
it: Moses spent 40 years in the wilderness before leading God’s
people out of Egypt.

As I reflect on the life of the early church recorded in Acts 2:42, I’m struck by the simplicity and strength of their community. Picture it: a small, dedicated group of believers gathering in homes, united by their faith in Jesus.

As the calendar turns to January, we step into a new year filled

with fresh opportunities, resolutions, and hope for what lies

ahead. For the Church, this season also marks the celebration of

Epiphany—a time when we remember the revelation of Jesus

Christ to the world.

Dear Holy Lamb Family,
As we enter the season of Advent, we’re invited into a time of
joyful anticipation, a season rich in meaning and filled with
reminders of God’s faithful promises.

It warmed the hearts of the call committee to see such a wonderful turnout on Wednesday Evening's Call Service.

Reading around in the Lutheran literature, Bible studies, catechetical
material, etc., you will inevitably bump into the term “means of
grace.”
