Download Growing Up Lutheran: What does this mean? AudioBook Free
If you seek out the word "coffee" in the Bible, if you're pretty sure that the pairs of animals in Noah's Ark were married, and if you believe tuna hotdish is okay but fishsticks are a little too ecumenical, you'll find humor in Growing Up Lutheran. In case the Lutherans you know seem rather, er, mysterious, it will do you really good. Combining their own memories with those of other Lutherans who grew up in the 1940s through the 1960s, co-authors Janet Martin and Suzann Nelson have created a delightful portrait of life as a Lutheran, from the moment of baptism ("And His Name WILL BE Called Gilman Einar Stedje") until death ("HE'S Not Gone, HE'S Only Away"). In between, you'll get the inside scoop on the Lutheran Church Basement Women, Lutefisk suppers, pew protocol, Haybelly Hanson's views on clapping in church, plus much more. Martin and Nelson are two 100 percent Norwegian Lutheran Farm Girls who have taken their religion on the road. The Minnesota residents have written six books together and are in demand as humorists, speaking together and individually in church basements, at country fairs, synod retreats, etc. Also, they are having hot flashes and documenting these experiences.
