QUOTES FOR REFLECTION“Biblically speaking, faith and faithfulness stand to each other as root and fruit.”~J. Hampton Keathley (1939-2002), American pastor and writer “The world might stop in ten minutes; meanwhile, we are to go on doing our duty. The great thing is to be found at one's post as a child of God, living each day as though it were our last, but planning as though our world might last a hundred years.”~C. S. Lewis (1898-1963) “The road to the Kingdom is not so pleasant, and comfortable, and easy, and flowery, as many dream. It is not a bright sunny avenue of palms. It is not paved with triumph, though it is to end in victory. The termination is glory, honor, and immortality; but on the way, there is the thorn in the flesh, the sackcloth, and the cross. Recompense later; but labor here! Rest later; but weariness here! Joy and security later; but here endurance and watchfulness – the race, the battle, the burden, the stumbling block, and oftentimes the heavy heart.”~Horatius Bonar (1808-1889), Scottish poet and hymnodist “He is not looking for heroics. He's looking for those who are willing to follow him down that road of sorrows no matter how tiny the form that cross may take.”~Elisabeth Elliot (1926-2015), Christian missionary, author, speaker “Thanks be to you, my Lord Jesus Christ, for all the benefits which you have given me, for all the pains and insults which you have borne for me. O most merciful Redeemer, Friend, and Brother, may I know you more clearly, love you more dearly, and follow you more nearly, day by day.”~Richard de Wych (1197-1253), English bishop “Faith, if it is to be sure and steadfast, must lay hold upon nothing else but Christ alone, and in the conflict and terrors of conscience it has nothing else to lean on but this precious pearl Christ Jesus.”~Martin Luther (1483-1546)SERMON PASSAGEHebrews 11:1-2, 32-12:2 (ESV)Hebrews 11 1 Now faith is the reality of what is hoped for, the proof of what is not seen. 2 For by this our ancestors were approved. 32 And what more can I say? Time is too short for me to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets, 33 who by faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, obtained promises, shut the mouths of lions, 34 quenched the raging of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, gained strength in weakness, became mighty in battle, and put foreign armies to flight. 35 Women received their dead, raised to life again. Other people were tortured, not accepting release, so that they might gain a better resurrection. 36 Others experienced mockings and scourgings, as well as bonds and imprisonment. 37 They were stoned, they were sawed in two, they died by the sword, they wandered about in sheepskins, in goatskins, destitute, afflicted, and mistreated. 38 The world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and on mountains, hiding in caves and holes in the ground. 39 All these were approved through their faith, but they did not receive what was promised, 40 since God had provided something better for us, so that they would not be made perfect without us.  Hebrews 12  1 Therefore, since we also have such a large cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us lay aside every hindrance and the sin that so easily ensnares us. Let us run with endurance the race that lies before us, 2 keeping our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith. For the joy that lay before him, he endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

From Luther to Zuckerberg: Who killed Privacy?

So who killed privacy? It's the central question of Tiffany Jenkins' provocative new history of private life, Strangers and Intimates. The answer, according to Jenkins, is that we are all complicit—having gradually and often accidentally contributed to privacy's demise from the 16th century onwards. Luther started it by challenging Papal religious authority and the public sacraments, thereby creating the necessity of private conscience. Then came Enlightenment philosophers like Locke and Hobbes who carved out bounded private political and economic spheres establishing the foundations for modern capitalism and democracy. Counter-enlightenment romantics like Rousseau reacted against this by fetishizing individual innocence and authenticity, while the Victorians elevated the domestic realm as sacred. Last but not least, there's Mark Zuckerberg's socially networked age, in which we voluntarily broadcast our private lives to a worldwide audience. But why, I ask Jenkins, should we care about the death of private life in our current hyper-individualistic age? Can it be saved by more or less obsession with the self? Or might it require us to return to the world before Martin Luther, a place Thomas More half satiricizes Utopia, where “private life” was a dangerously foreign idea. 1. Privacy is a Historical Accident, Not a Natural Human Condition"There was a sense in which you shouldn't do anything privately that they wouldn't do publicly... This wasn't a kind of property-based private life." Jenkins argues that before the 17th century, the very concept of leading a separate private life didn't exist—privacy as we understand it is a relatively recent invention.2. Martin Luther Accidentally Created Modern Privacy Through Religious Rebellion"Luther inadvertently... authorized the self as against, in his case, the Catholic Church... if you follow the debates over the kind of beginnings of a private sphere and its expansion, whether you're reading Locke or Hobbes, there's a discussion about... the limits of authority." Luther's challenge to religious authority unintentionally created the need for private conscience, sparking centuries of development toward individual privacy.3. The Digital Age Represents a Return to Pre-Privacy Transparency"I think we do live in a period where there is little distinction between public and private, where the idea that you might keep something to yourself is seen as strange, as inauthentic." Jenkins suggests our current era of social media oversharing resembles pre-modern times more than the Victorian peak of privacy.4. Modern Loneliness Stems From Social Fragmentation, Not Individual Psychology"I sometimes wonder if we're pathologizing, actually, what is a social problem, which is a society where people are fragmented, not quite sure how to go beyond themselves... I would see that as a social problem." Rather than treating loneliness as a personal issue, Jenkins argues it reflects the breakdown of intermediate institutions between family and state.5. Technology Doesn't Determine Our Privacy—We Do"Can't blame the tech, tech isn't the problem... It comes down really to what sort of society we want to live in and how we want to be treated. That's not a technical thing. That has not to do with technology. That's to do humans." Jenkins rejects technological determinism, arguing that privacy's fate depends on human choices about social organization, not inevitable technological forces.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

The Desert Fathers make it very clear that in every element of our faith life we are being drawn into the mystery of God and the kingdom. Therefore, we must become comfortable with living in mystery; of being immersed in a reality that is beyond intellect and reason and comprehended solely through the gift of faith and the light that God bestow upon us.  We often move very quickly to dissect what has been revealed to us by God, both for ourselves and others. Discussing matters of faith and reading books about dogma, however, can cause a man's compunction to wither and disappear. We often cling to the notional and the abstract rather than focusing upon our relationship with God and seeking purity of heart. The Fathes tell us it is the lives in the sayings of the elders that enlighten the soul and fill it with spiritual tears. Our lives then must be shaped by the Gospel and as one elder tells us we must seek to draw Christ into every part of our life. We love and follow a humble and crucified Lord; One who has been afflicted for our sin and who seeks our healing. Thus, our lives should mirror the simplicity of our Lord. We must not pamper the body in such a way that we weaken the spirit of contrition within our hearts. Neither must we fear affliction, but rather embrace it when it comes into our lives; knowing that God and his Providence allows it and through it perfects our virtue.  To a certain extent, we must be willing separate ourselves from the world and surround ourselves with those who seek and desire the same thing. How else can we maintain the spirit of contrition? The world itself and our culture has become antithetical to the gospel. The cross has been and always will be a stumbling block to those without faith. The more those in the world become focused upon material goods and comforts and a manner of life that is contrary to the teachings of the gospel, we must strive to genuinely and heroically to conform our lives to Christ regardless of the costs. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:09:31 Maureen Cunningham: I think it like a rally good restaurant it always word of mouth 00:10:56 Maureen Cunningham: What is sub stack and how is it different 00:11:10 Maureen Cunningham: You tube is also a big 00:11:38 Bob Čihák, AZ: substack.com in short. 00:11:50 iPad (2): Yes Father I agree with you 100% 00:11:56 Bob Čihák, AZ: Look & see. 00:15:53 Andrew Adams: I vote website, but I don't do social media anyway.

Send us a textThe tension between law and grace forms the cornerstone of authentic Christian theology, yet remains one of the most misunderstood concepts in churches today. When Martin Luther rediscovered Paul's radical message in Galatians 2, it sparked the Protestant Reformation and transformed Western Christianity forever.This powerful episode dives deep into why anything added to the gospel fatally corrupts it. Using a compelling analogy of the law as a threatening "mob boss" pursuing those who've received immunity through Christ, we explore how legalism continually attempts to reclaim territory in believers' lives. Paul's strategic introduction of uncircumcised Titus into Jerusalem becomes a masterclass in theological demonstration—proving that salvation requires nothing beyond grace through faith.Against the backdrop of remembering theological titans like John MacArthur and RC Sproul, we examine how their unwavering commitment to grace-centered theology mirrors Paul's refusal to compromise with the Judaizers. The episode highlights Paul's ingenious rhetorical strategy: bringing living proof (Titus) before the apostles to silence those who insisted circumcision was necessary for salvation.The implications reach far beyond ancient theological disputes. Today's Christians face similar pressures to add requirements to salvation—whether baptism, speaking in tongues, political alignment, or adherence to church traditions. This exploration of Galatians 2 provides clarity on distinguishing between salvation's foundation (grace alone through faith alone) and the Christian's response to that salvation.What core beliefs form your understanding of salvation? Have you unconsciously added requirements to what Christ has already accomplished?

Send us a textThe gospel of grace stands unrivaled in its simplicity and power - yet throughout history, there has always been a tendency to corrupt it with additions. In this illuminating exploration of Galatians, we dive deep into Paul's astonishment that the Galatian believers so quickly abandoned the pure message of grace for a distorted version that required law-keeping alongside faith.At the heart of this discussion is Galatians 2:16, the verse that sparked the Protestant Reformation when Martin Luther discovered its revolutionary truth: "knowing that a man is not justified by the works of law but by faith in Jesus Christ." This single verse dismantled centuries of religious tradition and restored the simplicity of salvation by faith alone. We examine why this concept remains so difficult for many to accept - how our natural pride resists the idea that we contribute nothing to our salvation.The fascinating connection between theological distortions throughout history provides a powerful backdrop for understanding Paul's urgent warning. We explore how Moses Maimonides' subtle change in describing God's nature as "Yachid" (absolute one) rather than "Echad" (united one) created massive barriers to Jewish understanding of the Trinity, paralleling how small additions to the gospel message create entirely false gospels.When Christ declared "It is finished" on the cross, He wasn't suggesting His work was merely a partial solution requiring our supplemental efforts. The gospel stands complete in itself - salvation comes through faith alone, and anything added corrupts the entire message. As Paul boldly states, even if an angel from heaven preached any other gospel, "let him be accursed."For those wrestling with legalism, works-based religion, or questions about the sufficiency of grace, this examination of Galatians provides profound clarity. The freedom Paul fought to preserve remains our inheritance today - a salvation so complete that it requires nothing but faith in what Christ has already accomplished.Support the show

Martin Luther said, “We are beggars- that is true.” As beggars and sinners in need of mercy and care, we rejoice that we have a Savior in Jesus Christ, who is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love (Psalm 103:8). This week we'll take a look at Luke 5 where Christ shows mercy towards a leper, as He displays His compassion and power through the healing of this man.

Send us a textWhat does it truly mean to be justified before God? Is adherence to religious laws necessary for salvation, or is faith in Christ alone sufficient? These questions aren't just theological abstractions—they strike at the heart of what it means to be a Christian.When Paul wrote to the Galatians, he confronted a church in crisis. New believers were being told they needed to follow Jewish ceremonial laws alongside their faith in Christ. Paul's response was unequivocal: salvation comes through grace alone, received by faith alone.The apostle opens his letter by establishing his divine appointment—not from men or through human agency, but directly from Jesus Christ and God the Father. This powerful claim sets the stage for understanding both Paul's authority and the divine nature of Christ, who stands not as a mere man but as equal with the Father.We explore how the law functions as a mirror, revealing our sinfulness without providing any means of cleansing. It serves as a schoolmaster leading us to Christ by exposing our desperate need for something we cannot accomplish ourselves—reconciliation with a holy God. This understanding revolutionized Martin Luther's thinking and sparked the Protestant Reformation.The distinction between living under law versus grace remains profoundly relevant today. Many Christians unconsciously blend the two approaches, creating a burden Jesus never intended his followers to carry. True freedom comes not from perfect rule-following but from resting in Christ's finished work.Join us as we begin our journey through this transformative letter that challenges us to examine whether we're truly living in the freedom Christ purchased or unconsciously slipping back into spiritual bondage.

Freedom carries profoundly different meanings depending on whether you're viewing it through the lens of modern culture or biblical truth. This thought-provoking episode tackles the paradox at the heart of Christian freedom—that surrender to Christ actually leads to our greatest liberty.Pastor Bob Fleischmann begins by sharing Martin Luther's powerful insight that "A Christian man is the most free lord of all and subject to none. A Christian man is the most dutiful servant of all and subject to everyone." This seemingly contradictory statement opens the door to understanding how Christian freedom differs fundamentally from the world's concept of autonomy.We explore how today's culture—from children's entertainment to political discourse—has shaped a shallow understanding of freedom as "having no rules." Even Frozen's beloved anthem "Let It Go" contains the revealing line: "No right, no wrong, no rules for me, I'm free." Against this cultural backdrop, we unpack Romans 6 and Galatians 5 to reveal how before Christ, we had only the "freedom" to sin—essentially the freedom to choose our chains. Through Christ's redemption, we gain something far greater: the freedom to do what is right.The conversation takes an especially practical turn when discussing Christian citizenship. Rather than seeing our freedom in Christ as an exemption from civic responsibility, we discover how it uniquely equips us to serve our neighbors through thoughtful participation in society. As one pastor notes, "Christians are called to be yeast in society—influencing it while remaining distinct."Whether you're wrestling with personal freedom questions or wondering how faith intersects with Independence Day celebrations, this episode offers refreshing clarity on what it truly means to be set free in Christ. The answer might surprise you—and transform how you view both spiritual liberty and its outworking in everyday life.Support the show

This insightful principle by the reformer Martin Luther means: "Simultaneously righteous, and a sinner." That is, a genuine believer in Jesus is simultaneously: 1. RIGHTEOUS (justus) in the sight of God through faith in Christ, having received His imputed righteousness. This is our identity in Christ. "For we maintain that a man is justified by faith, apart from observing the law." Romans 3:28 "However, to the man who does not work but trusts God who justifies the wicked, his faith is credited as righteousness." Romans 4:5 "Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." Romans 8:1 2. A SINNER (peccator) in his own sinful flesh, which remains unchanged even after conversion. "I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do--this I keep on doing." Romans 7:18-19 "For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you do not do what you want." Galatians 5:17 Hence every believer daily experiences the constant battle between the flesh and the spirit--the new spiritual nature in Christ. Though we are genuinely converted, our sinful flesh remains with us until we receive our resurrection bodies. "He will transform our lowly bodies, so that they will be like His glorious body!" Philippians 3:21 "Simultaneously righteous, and a sinner." What I am in Christ: RIGHTEOUS. What I am in my flesh: SINNER.

Full Text of ReadingsSaturday of the Thirteenth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 382The Saint of the day is Saint Anthony ZaccariaSaint Anthony Zaccaria’s Story At the same time that Martin Luther was attacking abuses in the Church, a reformation within the Church was already being attempted. Among the early movers of the Counter-Reformation was Anthony Zaccaria. His mother became a widow at 18, and devoted herself to the spiritual education of her son. He received a medical doctorate at 22, and while working among the poor of his native Cremona in Italy, was attracted to the religious apostolate. He renounced his rights to any future inheritance, worked as a catechist, and was ordained a priest at the age of 26. Called to Milan in a few years, he laid the foundations of three religious congregations, one for men, one for women, and an association of married couples. Their aim was the reform of the decadent society of their day, beginning with the clergy, religious, and lay people. Greatly inspired by Saint Paul—his congregation is named the Barnabites, after the companion of that saint—Anthony preached with great vigor in church and street, conducted popular missions, and was not ashamed of doing public penance. Anthony encouraged such innovations as the collaboration of the laity in the apostolate, frequent Communion, the Forty Hours devotion, and the ringing of church bells at 3:00 p.m. on Fridays. His holiness moved many to reform their lives, but as with all saints, it also moved many to oppose him. Twice his community had to undergo official religious investigation, and twice it was exonerated. While on a mission of peace, Anthony became seriously ill and was brought home for a visit to his mother. He died at Cremona at the age of 36. Reflection The austerity of Anthony's spirituality and the Pauline ardor of his preaching would probably “turn off” many people today. When even some psychiatrists complain at the lack of a sense of sin, it may be time to tell ourselves that not all evil is explained by emotional disorder, subconscious and unconscious drives, parental influence, and so on. The old-time “hell and damnation” mission sermons have given way to positive, encouraging, biblical homilies. We do indeed need assurance of forgiveness, relief from existential anxiety, and future shock. But we still need prophets to stand up and tell us, “If we say ‘We are without sin,' we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us” (1 John 1:8). Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Noahic Covenant G'day and welcome to Partake! We are now on day 4 of our series "Glimpses", looking at the story of the Bible in 30 days, from the time of creation through to the time of the fullness of redemption! Reading from Genesis 9v1-17: Then God blessed Noah and his sons and told them, "Be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth. All the animals of the earth, all the birds of the sky, all the small animals that scurry along the ground, and all the fish in the sea will look on you with fear and terror. I have placed them in your power. I have given them to you for food, just as I have given you grain and vegetables. But you must never eat any meat that still has the lifeblood in it. "And I will require the blood of anyone who takes another person's life. If a wild animal kills a person, it must die. And anyone who murders a fellow human must die. If anyone takes a human life, that person's life will also be taken by human hands. For God made human beings in his own image. Now be fruitful and multiply, and repopulate the earth." Then God told Noah and his sons, "I hereby confirm my covenant with you and your descendants, and with all the animals that were on the boat with you-the birds, the livestock, and all the wild animals-every living creature on earth. Yes, I am confirming my covenant with you. Never again will floodwaters kill all living creatures; never again will a flood destroy the earth." Then God said, "I am giving you a sign of my covenant with you and with all living creatures, for all generations to come. I have placed my rainbow in the clouds. It is the sign of my covenant with you and with all the earth. When I send clouds over the earth, the rainbow will appear in the clouds, and I will remember my covenant with you and with all living creatures. Never again will the floodwaters destroy all life. When I see the rainbow in the clouds, I will remember the eternal covenant between God and every living creature on earth." Then God said to Noah, "Yes, this rainbow is the sign of the covenant I am confirming with all the creatures on earth." This, the Noahic Covenant, is the third covenant between God and man given after the flood had wiped out earth's population, apart from Noah and his family. The increase of humanity's wickedness and disobedience against God, was so great that God repented of His decision to create humanity. Genesis 6v6 "So the Lord was sorry he had ever made them and put them on the earth. It broke his heart." As a result of humanity's sin, the whole earth was to be destroyed! But, one man and his family was found to be in fellowship with God - Noah! Because they are in fellowship with each other (Genesis 6v9), God gives Noah a plan of rescue! After the rain and flood, God makes another covenant with humanity and also all note, all living creatures of the earth - through Noah! Wow! The terms of the Noahic covenant are Populate the earth is reaffirmed (Genesis 9v1). Subjection of the animals to humans is reaffirmed (Genesis 9v2). Humans are allowed to eat animal flesh but are to refrain from drinking/eating the blood (Genesis 9vv3, 4) Human life's sanctity is established. (Genesis 9vv5, 6). God promises to never to destroy the earth again by flood (Genesis 9v11). The covenant is a binding Covenant for all time (9v12) and with all creatures on earth! The rainbow is given as a symbol of this covenant and its existence (Genesis 9v12-17) God will sustain all life on earth(Genesis 9v17) Here again, God gives humanity the opportunity to live rightly with Him. Whereas before, there was the hint of the sacrifice, about which Martin Luther, commenting on this story, wrote: Here there is mentioned for the first time the burnt offering of Noah, which he made according to the example of his pious ancestors So even before Noah, there must have been some type of sacrifice made to God although we don't know what kind they were! Sacrifices, in order to somehow appease God, who had received painful hurt inflicted by human disobedience. But this story, and the Covenant, while telling about God's rightful rule of Judge also shows his desire for intimacy with humanity. The Almighty God wants to have fellowship with humanity, but it has to be on God's terms. God has never broken His promise or covenant with humanity, but both times so far, humanity has contravened the covenant by actively disobeying God and therefore breaking the Covenant made - whether the Edenic or Adamic! God in saving Noah, shows also hints of a God of grace! What God wants humanity to do, He will provide the means in which for them to do it! He is concerned for every aspect of humanity's life, from birth to death and the food they eat. As a symbol of this covenant, there are to be rainbows! This covenant as we have seen is a binding contract between humanity and God! But the story doesn't end there - it continues tomorrow with God revealing just a bit more of those things we have seen glimpses of: true fellowship between God and humanity being restored through grace and sacrifice.

His friend the great scholar Desiderius Erasmus referred to Thomas More as “a Man for all seasons.” But which season? Or which Thomas More? Is he an advocate of conscience? A heroic defender of the Catholic faith? A saintly martyr? A fanatical zealot unwilling to listen to cool reason? An amateur inquisitor who lit the night with burning Lutherans and their books, and enjoyed little more than coming home after work for a torture session? Does every era get the Thomas More that it deserves?Thomas More was indeed a man of many twists and turns, a Tudor Odysseus. A Londoner; the grandson of a baker and son of a lawyer; a page in a noble household; an exceptional prose stylist, in Latin or English; a lawyer of exceptional diligence and skill; a guild member; a religious controversialist, able to match Martin Luther in scatology; a subtle humanist of European-wide fame; a poet; a politician; a bureaucrat; a royal advisor; a confessor of the faith; a prisoner; and a martyr. He was all those things, and more besides. With me to talk about the life and times of Thomas More is Joanne Paul, Associate Professor in Early Modern History at the University of Sussex. Her research focuses on the intellectual and cultural history of the Renaissance and Early Modern periods, written widely on Thomas More, William Shakespeare, Machiavelli and Thomas Hobbes.

During my recent trip to Germany in conjunction with the BGEA European Congress on Evangelism, I had the immense privilege of traveling to Wittenberg, Germany and walking with one of my favorite pastors—Skip Heitzig—through the very same square where Martin Luther famously nailed his Ninety-five Theses to the church door. As we walked, we reflected on how what was intended as a discussion-starter by a monk frustrated with the problems he was seeing in the Catholic Church ultimately became a revolution that would change Christianity as we know it today. Together, Skip and I discussed why the Reformation Luther started over 500 years ago should still matter to the Church today, and how we as the Church can uphold what Luther so boldly gave his life for. Luther pointed the Church back to the free gift of grace—emphasizing the Bible, not the Church, as the ultimate authority for believers. In a time when churches all over the world seem to be leaning more towards performance versus scriptural truth, Luther's message is more relevant than ever before. Church, it's time to fearlessly stand for our faith just as Luther did all those centuries ago.

Send us a textWhat happens when religions don't just oppose Christianity but attempt to replace it? This riveting theological conversation dives deep into the unique positioning of Catholicism compared to other world religions like Judaism and Islam.The speakers meticulously analyze a fascinating distinction: while Judaism and Islam clearly identify themselves as separate from Protestant Christianity, the Catholic Church has historically claimed to be the true Christian church. "Both Judaism and Islam would separate themselves. They'd say 'we are not you'... whereas Roman Catholic Church says 'no, no, no, we are you,'" explains one participant. This infiltration strategy presents unique challenges to biblical discernment.Drawing from historical context and Biblical references like 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4, the conversation examines specific Catholic doctrines and practices that participants believe contradict Scripture—from priestly forgiveness to transubstantiation. One particularly compelling observation suggests that many modern Protestant churches unknowingly maintain Catholic theological frameworks: "Most churches today that would call themselves Protestant or evangelical or non-denominational, they're basically Catholic because they're synergists, not monergists."The discussion shifts to a passionate call for Christians to understand their Reformation roots and the theological distinctions that led to that historical separation. "We are standing on John Calvin's shoulders. We are standing on Martin Luther's shoulders," asserts one speaker, lamenting that many believers today fail to appreciate these foundations.Perhaps most urgently, the speakers address the modern challenge of spiritual discernment in an age of technological deception. They warn about AI-generated fake sermons that sound remarkably like respected preachers, underscoring the critical importance of personal Bible study. "Christians today, most of us today, are just lazy... Their whole thing is like 'well, Jesus loves me and I love him, and that's it.' No, that's not all that matters."Listen now to this thought-provoking conversation that challenges comfortable assumptions and calls believers to deeper engagement with Scripture and church history.

- Speaker: Frank Strickland - That was the essence of Martin Luther's charge against a fellow theologian. That same statement can be made today of our concept of God. This class will investigate the statement that ‘Every problem in the Christian's life can be traced back to a basic misunderstanding of some Attribute of God'. As we grow in faith, we learn to lean on his attributes to guide us in times of difficulty. In fear, we can lean on His power; in loneliness, we remember His Love; in doubt, we trust His faithfulness. When we ignore His presence in hardship, we miss the opportunity to witness His faithfulness, love, and sovereignty and prepare for the next round. We will practice understanding, and applying, the Attributes of God using Holiness, Faithfulness, Omnipotence and Love. Come see how my fear of the future/my past/current events; anger/bitterness, lack of purpose, pride etc. can be cured by taking a deep dive into who God is and living it out. Hold on, because this might just change the course of your life!

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION“We do see by faith. We see by faith what cannot be seen by our eyes; we grasp by faith what cannot be grasped with our hands.”~Charles Spurgeon “We can stop pleading with God to show us the future, and start living and obeying like we are confident that He holds the future.”~Kevin DeYoung “Faith is a living, daring confidence in God's grace, so sure and certain that a man could stake his life on it a thousand times.”~Martin Luther “Faith is the confident, continuous confession of total dependence on and trust in Jesus Christ for the necessary requirements to enter God's Kingdom. It involves more than mere intellectual assent to the truth of the gospel; saving faith includes trust in the Lord Jesus Christ and surrender to His lordship.”~John MacArthur “The righteous shall live by faith.”~Habakkuk 2:4SERMON PASSAGEHebrews 11:1-7 (ESV) 1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. 2 For by it the people of old received their commendation. 3 By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.4 By faith Abel offered to God a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, through which he was commended as righteous, God commending him by accepting his gifts. And through his faith, though he died, he still speaks. 5 By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death, and he was not found, because God had taken him. Now before he was taken he was commended as having pleased God. 6 And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him. 7 By faith Noah, being warned by God concerning events as yet unseen, in reverent fear constructed an ark for the saving of his household. By this he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.

Does your everyday life feel boring and disconnected from a sense of meaning and purpose? What if your boring life is way more holy than you think?   On today's show the gang tackles the topic of vocation and our desire for meaning and purpose. The question of vocation often feels like trying to find a needle in a haystack, if we miss God's calling on our lives everything else is pointless! What if that's not how vocation works? Looking to Martin Luther, the group discusses his idea of “The masks of God” and how it relates to vocation. God delights to work through ordinary means. Police officers, government officials, and grocers are used by God to meet our needs for safety, peace, and daily sustenance. This perspective is larger than the category of occupation, helping us understand how the embrace of a friend and our honest conversation with a loved one is God at work to meet our hearts' need for acceptance and belonging. The group closes the conversation with a rubric for making decisions about life and vocation.    We pray this conversation blesses you and opens your eyes to God at work for you, in the world around you.    Links/References “God at Work” by Gene Veith Explore your relationship with God through spiritual direction Get email summaries for the show on PodSnacks!

Romans 1:16-17 — The Protestant Reformation erupted from Romans 1:16-17. In this sermon, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones examines these vital and crucial verses that were the catalyst for Martin Luther. Some of the audience to whom Paul wrote may have been ashamed and discouraged in their faith but in boldness and inspiring confidence, Paul wrote “I am not ashamed of the gospel.” Though the world ridicules the teachings of Christ and calls those who believe foolish, our faith is a fact, not a philosophy. The world might see us as fools, but we are affirmed and protected by our Savior. The gospel is full of hope for the fallen world. As the Doctor explains, Paul's teaching exposes the sin of humanity and that Christ's death and resurrection were for all social statuses. Thus, every person can rest in the hope that there is joy of being loved by our Lord and in being considered foolish in the eyes of the world.

Send us a textThis episode kicks off a six-part series on the Five Solas—five essential truths that fueled the Protestant Reformation and still shape our faith today. Pete Alwinson and Jayson Quiñones set the stage by diving into the historical and spiritual context that gave rise to these bold declarations: Scripture Alone, Faith Alone, Grace Alone, Christ Alone, and To the Glory of God Alone.Before we explore each Sola in-depth over the next five episodes, this conversation lays the theological and historical groundwork. From the corruption of the medieval church to Martin Luther's radical stand for biblical truth, this episode helps men understand why the Solas matter—and how they call us to live as men of conviction today. Whether you've never heard of the Five Solas or just need a refresher, this is where it all begins.

Short, concise, teachable, and robust in theology. This is the essence of Martin Luther's catechisms. Luther was committed to ensuring that the Christian faith was taught in homes, which would then edify the life of the Church in the body of Christ. Every Christian should be able to recite by heart the ten commandments, the Creed, and the Lord's Prayer before receiving the Lord's Supper, along with keeping the plain texts of the Sacraments. These teachings are enough for every Christian to read, mark, and inwardly digest for a lifetime, as we learn the depth of God's grace for Christ's sake. Rev. Dr. John Maxfield, associate professor of religion at Concordia University in Edmonton, Alberta, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to provide background for our study on the Large Catechism. Find your copy of the Book of Concord - Concordia Reader's Edition at cph.org or read online at bookofconcord.org. Study the Lutheran Confession of Faith found in the Book of Concord with lively discussions led by host Rev. Brady Finnern, President of the LCMS Minnesota North District, and guest LCMS pastors. Join us as these Christ-confessing Concordians read through and discuss our Lutheran doctrine in the Book of Concord in order to gain a deeper understanding of our Lutheran faith and practical application for our vocations.
