Discover the heart of who we are.
LCAQD has produced six short videos to explain five 'big rocks' of Lutheran teaching:
1. God is revealed as gracious and merciful
2. We are beloved and unique creatures of a loving creator
3. We sin against God and against each other
4. We are made to be with and for each other in relationships
5. God's ways are justice, mercy and peace
The video to the right provides an overview, and the button below leads to all six videos.
