The Christian and His Home
If the story of the Cross of Jesus finds an abiding place in any home, that family is indeed blessed and endowed with the power that makes this life of ours really worth living. Such a home will have Christ the Glory of time, the Crown of eternity.
1921 Carl Manthey-Zorn Northwestern Publishing House
Prevention of Pregnancy
How can such hearts be graced with faith and fear of the Lord and with the mind of a child of God? How can God’s blessing rest upon such a home? We verily believe that God’s wrath hovers there.
1923 The Northwestern Lutheran
Whom Shall I Marry?
Our characters are insensibly moulded by those with whom we pass our time. To none does this apply so much as to married people. Husbands and wives are continually doing either good or harm to one another's souls.
1923 The Northwestern Lutheran
The Treasure of Marriage
Marriage is a sacred rite, in that two people solemnly covenant before God and in His name to live in holy bonds of matrimonial relationship until death parts them. But back of marriage are the privileges and the functionings, the duties and the division of labor that involve a family, that normally requires children.
1924 Hans Manthey Zorn The Lutheran Witness
Courtship and Marriage: Conduct of the Betrothed and Newly Married
The rearing of a family, the raising of children, is the proper function of the holy estate of matrimony. There the purity of the nation is preserved. There is the blessing of God.
