The Coffee Hour from KFUO Radio Martin Luther's Deutsche Messe: The Mass for the People (Rebroadcast)
Dr. Joe Herl, professor of music at Concordia University Nebraska, joins Andy and Sarah on Martin Luther's commemoration day (February 18) to talk about Luther's Deutsche Messe (German Mass), including the problems Luther had with the traditional Latin Mass, why Luther wrote this German Mass and who it was for, what the German Mass contained after he translated it from Latin, and where we have this Mass in our Lutheran liturgy today. Find Divine Service Setting 5 in Lutheran Service Book on p. 213.
As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let’s be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world. Catch real-life stories of mercy work of the LCMS and partners, updates from missionaries across the ocean, and practical talk about how to live boldly Lutheran.
