Epaphras Letters

The Epaphras Prayer Letter encourages people to support the Institute of Lutheran Theology (ILT) through their prayers. The Apostle Paul named Epaphras, saying of him, “He is always wrestling in prayer for you…” (Col.4:12). The letter comes out every week. ILT makes it available on its website and through email subscription. Each letter contains an inspirational thought and several prayer concerns for you to pray in support of ILT and its mission—to raise up faithful preachers and teachers of Jesus Christ and him crucified.

Paul writes here of a faded glory… the glory of the letter… the glory of the Law… a glory faded because the Law had proved ineffectual . . .

The Eleventh Sunday after Trinity, August 31, 2025

Even though Paul considered himself to be the hardest working of all the apostles, he didn’t let such thinking lead to pride . . .

The Tenth Sunday after Trinity, August 24, 2025

Pagan idols have no voice. They stand mute while others put words in their mouths. Wood, stone, precious metals . . .
