Martin Luther wrote it. Many have sung it lustily on Sunday morning. "A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing!" Conjuring up God in this militaristic fashion gives some people pause. They see a fort bristling with weaponry and with armed soldiers at the ready. But this is not a fort in the sense that we may wish to use it for attack. It is a fort in the sense of a place of safety. "A rock of refuge."
