Divine Service, Catechetical Instruction in the Life of the Church, Volume I, Teacher's Guide (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781548768607)

The Liturgy of the Divine Service is the life of the Church. It is essential that our children learn the theology of the Church's worship. When this historic liturgy is taken for granted, it is soon lost. While the Divine Service is part of 100 Bible Stories New and Old Testaments and Youth Catechesis, the focus in Divine Service, Vol. I & II is more direct. Each unit includes a Bible Story, an explanation of the Liturgy, questions on the Bible Story and on the Liturgy, and questions on the assigned Memory Work. There are in some lessons additional questions that are to be answered from the Lutheran Service Book.

The child must be able to pray the Lord's Prayer and Apostle's Creed with their parents and the pastor. He must be able to answer basic questions about Baptism and the Lord's Supper, i.e. that Baptism is in the name of the Holy Trinity, the name of the Holy Trinity, that they entered the Church through Baptism, and that Baptism always involves water. About the Lord's Supper they need to know that it is the actual Body and Blood of Jesus that they are receiving. In fact, we prefer that when asked what they are receiving in the Lord's Supper; their first reaction is to say, "The Body and Blood of Jesus" rather than "bread and wine." At Grace Lutheran Church we insist upon using only unleavened bread and grape wine.
