True, and we should be thankful. No news is good news. The only way that an LC-MS member can get on the news is to murder his wife. Then they’ll make a made for TV movie about you.
Seriously, the things that make the news are for the most part bad, institutional apostasy, violence, money or sex scandal, etc.
Give a cup of cold water to a child in Jesus’ name, and you remain anonymous, HOWEVER you will never lose your reward.
