The only son from heaven,

Fortelled by ancient and seeds,

By God the Father given,

In human form appears, No spear is light confining, no stars so brightly shining,

as the hymn of the day for this Sunday, the only son from heaven in the gospel reading

for this coming Sunday, we find that only son at a wedding in Cana, and John tells us he reveals

his glory there and his disciples believe in him.

Greetings and welcome to issues et cetera coming to you live from the studios of Lutheran Public

Radio in Collinsville, Illinois. I'm Todd Wilkin. Thanks for tuning us in. We'll be looking

forward to Sunday morning according to the three- lectionary with Pastor Sean Denzer.

Then an hour from now, we'll study that hymn that you just heard, the only son from heaven with Dr. Arthur Just.

Pastor Sean Denzer is Director of Worship for the Lutheran Church, Missouri Synod.

Sean, welcome back.

Great to be back, Todd.

You say that across both lectionaries, we have a marriage Sunday this coming Sunday. What do you mean by that?

Well, it's one of those rare occasions where the gospel reading actually matches up, and it's not just some big feast.
