The Task of Theology - Archived Table Talk: PLTS - Week One

Our First “Table Talk” was from 9:30am-11:00am PST in Giesy 1 at PLTS.  We are discussing Luther’s 95 Theses.  In case you don’t have a copy, you can read them at this website:

As a secondary text, I am suggesting the Heidelberg Disputation: http://bookofconcord.org/heidelberg.php.  This is the classic exposition of Luther’s theology of the cross.  However, our primary focus will be on the 95 Theses.

Opportunity to Travel to Germany to Celebrate the 500th Anniversary of the Reformation

Opportunity to Travel to Germany to Celebrate the 500^th Anniversary of the Reformation – August 30-September 6, 2017

Join Pastor Dan Smith and members and friends of the Lutheran Church of the Incarnation in Davis, California, for an important celebration of the 500^th Anniversary of the Reformation.  We will visit sites associated with the life, times and events of Martin Luther to explore the visionary call for reform he made in the 16^th century.  We will be joining people from around the world marking this important event. Our program is being offered as a land-only program (you will make your own flight arrangements to and from Germany) which allows you to go early, stay longer, and shop for special airfares.  We have created a program that includes several nights in the beautiful medieval town of Erfurt and several in Wittenberg – Luther’s town.  We conclude our visit with an overnight in the exciting cosmopolitan city of Berlin.  Join us to learn more about this visionary man and explore the people, places, and events of the 16^th century.  Space is limited and registrations are being accepted this summer.  For program information and registration visit:  www.travelillume.com/trc/vks   or call:  800-368-6757 ex 128 at the Illume organization in Boston.
