Each month the Learning Subcommittee will be noting some resources for Christian Education that you might want to make use of in your education al setting. Since October is the time we celebrate the Reformation you might want to check out these items:

*"The Lutheran Course" takes you through the fundamentals of Lutheranism in seven sessions. Some of the topics covered are: "How to Tell the Difference Between the Law and the Gospel" presented by James Nestingen, "The Anatomy of a Baptism" presented by Winston Persaud and "The Three Most Rebellious Things Jesus Did" presented by Barbara Rossing. The Lutheran Handbook and the workbook provide the group with great information and challenging questions for discussion. Great for new Lutherans, old Lutherans, and anyone in between! You can check these out from the C/SIS Resource Center by calling 217-753-7915 and asking for Sandy McAuley.

*Go to the ELCA web site at www.elca.org / Churchwide Units / Christian Education / Plan Programs Children-Family Intergenerational Events / REFORMATION - "Church House Rocks" & REFORMATION "Luther's Info Drive Thru". You will find a great deal of information that can be used with your Sunday School on Reformation! Enjoy!

Be sure to look for "What's Hot in Christian Education" each month.
