I know, I just can't seem to leave the Reformation alone! It has been that way in our home for nearly 3 years now!
I would encourage anyone to take some time to study the Reformation. And, just so you know, the Reformation is not over! The cry of the Reformers was 'Reformed always reforming'! Isn't that how we are to live? Continually being transformed by the renewing of our mind, conformed to the image of Christ, and reformed in our lives to always bring honor to Christ?
So this Monday, we will be celebrating 'Reformation Day'! I wish we could have had a 'bigger event' involving lots of folks but we will be content to have our family! Daddy will be playing the role John Knox, the girls will don their renaissance dress, and we will be watching a movie on Martin Luther! Oh! Don't forget the crackling fire and sipping on egg nog!
NORMALLY we would have 'candy' yet we are trying to cut down on sugar! Anyone have any ideas for fun and interesting snack foods?
Well we wish you a joyful Reformation Day and our prayer for you is that you are Reformed and always Reforming!! All to the glory of Christ! Would you be willing to comment on how your family is celebrating Reformation Day today?

We are a few hours ahead of you in Australia so it is the morning after Reformation Day here.
We have been reading from Reformation Heroes by Joel Beeke in our Bible time. We just happened to read about Martin Luther last Friday. On Reformation Day we did the normal schoolwork and chores. My girls planned and made a "feast" for dinner and we watched the movie "Luther".
Thats great Dawn! Thanks for commenting!
Were going to have ours at 6:30 tonight!
Dana,
Happy Reformation day to you and your family! We do different things each year and this year we have a sick one so it will be more mellow. We are having a great feast we will read the 95 Theses and talk about reformation in our own lives. We usually watch a movie about one of the reformers but with sick one it will probably not happen! ;o)
Love, Heather P. from Titus2
Hi Heather! Sorry you have a sick one! Do you read ALL 95 of them! Wow! We had a lot of fun and hope to post about it later. Thanks for commenting!
