I may have noted elsewhere that our small Orthodox parish has four former Lutheran (LCMS) clergy in it.
I just discovered that the philosophy department in which I teach also has four former Lutherans in it.
Interesting....
"One hears that, in foreign lands, people are now learning to swim, lying on the floor, with the aid of equipment. In the same way, one can become a Catholic or Protestant without experiencing life at all--by reading books in one's study. But to become Orthodox, it is necessary to immerse oneself all at once in the very element of Orthodoxy, to begin living in an Orthodox way. There is no other way."--Fr. Pavel Florensky

pure coincidence...or you are an amazing evangelist
It's certainly not the latter...
Maybe Lutherans just come in fours, like in a poker game. :-) Or the four horsemen of the Apocalypse. :D
Are they the same Lutherans?
now that would be a coincidence!
I'm the only common member of both groups.
:D
Father bless.
We'll have to visit again... that would make it five.
Huh!
I am late on this one, nevertheless, this blogger happens to be a former lutheran too.
What is going on here??? WEIRD HUH!
I personaly know 33 former Lutherans, now Orthodox Christians.
It is all about the potluck. If you make it we will come.
Cheers,

@emily - five would make for a better game of sheepshead!
