Good works do not reconcile us to God. Only by faith in the blood of Christ are we reconciled to the Father (1 Timothy 2:5). However, good works are necessary (Ephesians 2:10). They are done to fulfill God's will. In faith, there are no fractions in salvation. Works without faith will never be enough, but Christ's cross is enough. “Nothing in my hand I bring; Simply to Thy cross I cling. Naked, come to Thee for dress; Helpless, look to Thee for grace; Foul, I to the fountain fly; Wash me Savior, or I die.” LSB 761, st. 3 Rev. John Pless, Assistant Professor of Pastoral Ministry and Missions at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, IN, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study the Scriptural truth on good works.

A discussion about the issues underlying the divisive history and theology in the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod. This year marks the 50th anniversary since the Walkout protest debating the authority of Scripture and the Gospel. Ringside and Dr. John Pless explore a bit of the history of interpretation that led to Seminex, differences in the LC-MS seminaries, and the theological principles at stake then and now. Listen until the end!! We offer an answer to the question, “What might we learn from this battle from 50 years ago… is there a better way to approach the question of the authority of Scripture?”   GUEST: Dr. John Pless Thank you:  1517.org  thejaggedword.com Grace Lutheran Ventura St. James Lutheran, Chicago

The Biblical understanding of Justification centers on Christ's cross and empty tomb. For Christ's sake, God declares the dead in sin to be alive, the unrighteous now righteous, the condemned are now not guilty, and the sinful are forgiven. Melancthon proves this Truth by pointing to the many passages in Scripture that clearly confess our hope in Christ. “My hope is built on nothing less, Than Jesus' blood and righteousness; No merit of my own I claim But wholly lean on Jesus' name. On Christ, the solid rock I stand; All other ground is sinking sand.” LSB #575, st. 1 Rev. John Pless, Assistant Professor at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, IN, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to continue our study of Justification. Find your copy of the Book of Concord - Concordia Reader's Edition at cph.org or read online at bookofconcord.org.

Craig sits down with Dr. John Pless and Kurt Winrich to talk about t Martin Luther's Large Catechism and why we need it (Troy couldn't be there because of other commitments *insert sad trombone sound here). Then Kurt Winrich joins in the conversation and tells us about 1517.org and our fantastic Here We Still Stand Conferences that teach us so much about Christ in a Catechetical way.

Your god is whatever you fear, love, and trust in above the Triune God. Luther called our hearts an “idol factory” that is ready to trust the newest god on the block. Yet, the one true God has given us access to His name through Christ and in return we pray, praise, and give thanks! Lord have mercy. Rev. Dr. John Pless, Assistant professor of pastoral ministry and missions at Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Indiana joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study the 1st and 2nd commandments of Luther's Small Catechism. Find your copy of the Book of Concord - Concordia Reader's Edition at cph.org or read online at bookofconcord.org.

On episode ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Mike are thrilled to be joined once again by two previous guests: Rev. Dr. John Pless of Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, IN, and Rev. Adam Morton, associate pastor at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in Lancaster, PA. But they're not only joined by these two fantastic guests, they are also joined by a live audience, as this episode was recorded at the 2019 Here We Still Stand conference, which was held in October of 2019. As was the case last year at the Here We Still Stand conference, time is limited, so the guys cut right to the case and let their guests discuss the German theologian Oswald Bayer. A big thanks to both Rev. Dr. Pless and Rev. Morton for joining us again!  As always, we're grateful to the 1517 podcasting network, but we are especially thankful for giving us the opportunity to record this episode at the Here We Still Stand conference.

On episode SEVENTY-SIX of Let the Bird Fly! the guys are thrilled to be joined by Rev. Dr. John Pless of Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, IN, as well as by returning guest Rev. Bror Erickson. But they're not only joined by these two fantastic guests, they are also joined by a live audience, as this episode was recorded at the 2018 Here We Still Stand conference, which was held in October of 2018.  Recording in front of a live audience changes things a bit, but perhaps the biggest challenge for Wade was being told he had to keep it to 40 minutes! So with guests of this caliber and a limited time, they cut right to the chase, skipping the Scripture Narrative and the Free-for-All. Instead the guys get right to the business of discussing Hermann Sasse, a theologian that both Dr. Pless and Rev. Erickson have a wealth of knowledge about. As always, we're grateful to the 1517 podcasting network, but we are especially thankful for giving us the opportunity to record this episode at the Here We Still Stand conference. Speaking of the 1517 Podcast Network, they have a newly released series entitled The Soul of Christianity, that you should check out. It's a 12 part series on the Apostle's Creed, which is hosted by Debi Winrich and Dan van Voorhis. And while you're at it, make sure to check out all the great podcast in the 1517 Podcast Network.

Are we entering a digital arms race? First Salisbury, NC announces its 10-gigabit network last month. Then Chattanooga announced its 10-gigabit network last week. Should the dozens of communities planning or starting to build gig infrastructure just go ahead and launch 10-gig networks instead? 20 gigs? John Pless, a spokesperson for the public utility (EPB) that operates the Chattanooga network, joins us to discuss this latest broadband infrastructure development. EPB’s10-gig service is available to every home and business in its 600 square mile service area for $299 per month, and comes with free installation, no contracts and no cancellation fees. People have a lot of questions for Chattanooga: How big of a deal is it to move from 1 gigabit to 10 gigabits?What kind of pressure does a 10-gig network put on your competitors?What type of businesses will be enticed by 10-gig nets to move to Chattanooga?  Will medical facilities and professionals in particular find this new super-highspeed capability the reason for coming to town?How will low-income communities keep pace with these gigabit announcements? It’s a good thing Craig Settles’ new book, Building the Gigabit City, Vol 2, has the flexibility of a digital format.
