Salem's Deer Hunter Service Sermon, Notes on Solomon's Song
In Wisconsin and Minnesota and Michigan, as well as some other states, there be many Lutherans. And many of these Lutherans hunt. Wisconsin almost shuts down for two weeks for the official deer hunting season. In the Inner City of Milwaukee, members have asked for a "Deer Hunters Service" so that they can share the Word of God before they head out into the woods. This year, due to pastor's vacation, I delivered the sermon. Herein is the sermon with the text from the Song of Solomon. Included at the end are my Isagogical notes from Seminary on the Song of Solomon. Final note: Luther was known to "join the boys" in hunting when he was kept at the Wartburg castle.
