Meeting your parents

I was speaking at the Texas Confessional Lutheran conference over the weekend, so I missed the visit of Tropical Storm Hanna. I’m kind of sorry I wasn’t there, but my wife battened down the hatches for what amounted to just a really heavy rain. But at the conference, imagine my surprise when I met the parents of some of you readers! There was the mother of Lisa. And the parents of constant commenter tODD! I did not realize that tODD grew up in Faith Lutheran church in Plano, TX, a fine congregation that I’ve spoken at before. tODD is a good reminder to us all of the Two Kingdoms truth that one can be conservative theologically while being liberal politically.
