Family Camp 3: July 5-11 Guest Speaker: Magnus Persson “Reclaiming the Reformation: Christ for You in Community”
This week Magnus Persson will examine his journey from popular preacher where church was a party, to the Lutheran faith and pastor in the Church of Sweden where he relishes the liturgy nourished by its historic roots. Persson relies heavily on Luther’s book On the Councils and the Church to answer this question and explain his journey.
Magnus is a husband, father, and grandfather. He is an ordained Verbi Divini Minister and works as a pastor for EFS – a missional renewal movement in the Swedish Evangelical Lutheran Church. He is also the network co-ordinator of Re:formera and the host for its weekly podcast. Magnus published his book Reclaiming the Reformation: Christ for you in Community in 2021 with 1517 Publishing.

Home is a powerful idea. When we feel at home, we feel seen, understood, and at peace with the world and ourselves. Yet we’ve all had and have experiences of feeling homeless in the world. In the midst of those experiences, Jesus invites us to make our home in him, even as he makes his home in us. Join us as we explore what this looks like.
