Pastor's David Endorf and Will Harley talk about Free Will and find out it isn't quite as free as we would like it to be. That is until we are freed in Christ as we are brought to faith through Word and Sacrament.
Will Harley was reading through the book "Without Flesh," and He and Dave talk about one chapter in the book about the power of words (although Dave may only want to talk about his most recent favorite Dad jokes). While it may seem like we are just geeking out on theology (which, if we're honest, we like to do), but the words we speak, whether in church or in the home, have a powerful creative impact on those who hear them (even if it's dad jokes creating laughter or eye rolls).

As we wrap up our discussion on Leviticus we give you some of our take aways and focus on the point of it all... Jesus Christ. May the Lord bless you as you walk with us as we give you one more thing.
Today we talk about the designs God has for us to remain in the state of holiness. How often our sinful nature distorts what God has given as gift.
Pastor Harley and Pastor Ruddat walk you through the day of atonement. What made this day special, and where did God forecast the Messiah in this most holy and solemn day of the year for God's Old Testament people?
What makes an animal clear or unclean? Prescriptions for Bodily discharges and leprosy? The alternative lifestyle that God presribed for his people maye leave us shaking our heads, but there are reasons why God prescribed this for his Old Testament people. We who have have the witnesses of the Messiah's arrival can look back and appreciate these silhouettes of the savior. Join us as we talk about this alternative lifestyle, and find out how many Pastor Dave Ruddat's dad jokes Pastor Will Harley can tolerate.
When God choses to use earthly elements to do wonderous things it is an important thing. When he chooses to work in water with his word for saving purpose in Baptism that is awesome. When he chooses to place himself in bread and wine with his body and blood with his word for our forgiveness, it is amazing. When he chooses to reach through time and space and share his grace it should cause us to stop and take notice. Welcome to the continued discussion of the book of Leviticus.
Pastor Will Harley travels to the Casting Nets Northern Command in Shirley Wisconsin to talk to Pastor Dave Ruddat about blood sacrifices/offerings in Leviticus 1-7. Topics talked about 1. Should we think of them as sacrifices or offerings? 2. Whole/ Burnt 3. Fellowship/Peace 4. Sin 5. Restitution
We still think in terms of Holiness. We mark things as clean and unclean. We think in terms of ordinary and extraordinary. Let's begin the study of Leviticus and see what our Lord has to say about these topics and much more. Through it all let's see Jesus fulfill all things for us.

Pastor Enderle and Pastor Ruddat attended the same summer quarter course (in fall) from Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary on discipleship. A book from Thom Rainer posits that one way to address the church membership losses that christian churches are experiencing is to revisit what does it mean to be a church member, so we review the book from a Lutheran perspective. Pastor Will Harley also joined us this week, and helped keep the conversation moving. Passages read from the Evangelical Heritage Version.

We talk today about seeing Jesus in the Old Testament. Often many Christians forget that the Scriptures that Jesus, the disciples, and Paul used were the Old Testament and Jesus is there. Let's not read Jesus into them, but let us learn to read Jesus out of the Old Testament.

Itching ears, a head clear of illusions, fighting loneliness, and Pastor Harley's love of the smell of leather... all topics Pastor Will Harley and Pastor Dave Ruddat talk about, all in the big finish to our pastoral epistles. What combats itching ears, loneliness, and being in the same room as someone who obsesses over the smell of leather? Christ for us!
Pastor Will Harley and Pastor Dave Ruddat stare with Paul into a world that is burning, but come away with the same conclusion, continue in the Word of God. Pastor Ruddat guesses Pastor Harley's favorite verse in this chapter, but is he right?
When Pastor Ruddat thinks of Timothy, often times he thinks of the young man that Paul mentored. 2 Timothy reminds us that Timothy is a seminary professor, one with responsibility yet one needing encouragement to be strong. In the midst of Paul's encouragement to Timothy to be strong, we find encouragement for ourselves to be strong, for the encouragement we need is Christ for us.
Pastor Will Harley and Pastor Dave Ruddat introduce 2 Timothy, Paul's Last Will and Testament, and go over the chapter section by section. At the end of the episode, we talk about what we would want on our epitaphs
Join Pastor Harley and Pastor Ruddat finish off the book of Titus, with a great discussion on the truths in Titus chapter 3, truths we don't want to be true sometimes. Join us as we explore situations when we don't want God's truth to be true. Listen to the great thing God has done even when we would rather listen to our "but's."
Doctrine, not a stuffy word just for seminaries or classrooms, but a concept that shapes how we live our lives, just as it shaped how elders, widows, and slaves lived their lives in ancient Crete.
Titus was asked to do much in his ministry. Join Pastor Dave and Will as they begin their walk through Paul's letter to Titus and how he was a troubleshooter in ministry.
Join Dave and Will as we talk about slavery, books, use of language and money all in the final thoughts of 1 Timothy.
Dave and Will talk about Paul's instructions to Timothy concerning widows. We explore what the widows did and how they served the church and the family. While the ministry of widows in 1 Timothy 5 would not make a snazzy Marvel action movie (like "Black Widow"), Will and Dave explore how the widow ministry in Ephesus worked and what it could look like today. Join us as we talk about 1 Timothy 5.
Pastor Dave and Will talk about the great certainty we have in the sound teaching of God's Word, but the demons have some ideas as to what teachings we should focus on. That are those doctrines of demons, and how do they lead us away from Christ?
We expound on the conversation of Men and Woman and their callings as we practice this great gift in society. For further information on this discussion the Wisconsin Lutheran Synod has put out a statement about the Callings of Men and Women that can be found on their website. You can also turn to the devotions on the Women's Ministry page at https://wels.net/dev-women/uc20210729/
Dave and Will talk about the gift of ministry in a rural church setting. Sometimes we forget that ministry is not just about the numbers of people but the message and growth of the God's word among them as Christ is shared.
Another episode on Lutheran Catechesis, this time an interview with a man passionate for teaching the truths of God's Word and passionate against the "graduation mentality" that our current customs perpetuate. Listen to how he addressed it in the parish ministry, and his insights now that he is pastoring teens at a area Lutheran High School. Pastor Krahn has served in a larger congregation in the past and now serves teens at Manitowoc Lutheran High School as campus pastor and head of its theology department.

Pastor Will Harley and Pastor Dave Ruddat share their dad stories while reflecting on what it means to be a Christian dad. God has provided good dads and bad dads for us to look at in the pages of Scripture, and Pastor Harley and Pastor Ruddat go over some of our favorite good dads and bad dads: Isaac (Genesis 25) Jethro (Exodus 2:17-21; 3; 18: 5-27 Eli (1 Samuel 2; 1 Samuel 4) Saul (1 Samuel 11) David (2 Samuel 13) Joseph (Matthew 2, Luke 2) The LORD (Parable of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15)

We talk today about the harmony we have together because of Jesus. He is true Lord and true man for us. Near the end of the podcast we loose connection with the internet; so we will have to catchup on the end of show next week.

Join the conversation and the debate. Show Notes: Richard Hollerman's blog: https://truediscipleship.com/why-i-left-the-lutheran-church/
It seems odd to say that a person could be joyful in the midst of suffering. It would be if you were responsible for creating and sustaining the joy in you. But we have Christ. He is the reason for our Joy in the midsts of all points of life. Join us as we start talking about Philippians.
Social Media has brought into our lives social influencers who can reach a great many people. But there is a dark side to influencers that even Pastor Ruddat and Pastor Harley are not immune to.

Don and Will begin their talk on the last vision of Daniel. As we race to the end of the book we take a moment to see the stark reality of living in a life filled with sinful people. We see the battle wages behind the scenes between good and evil. We see God's plan to send his Son to safe play out evermore before our eyes.
Dave and Will talk today about being cancelled. With cancel culture dominating our news, the question needs to be asked, "Is cancel culture a good thing?" We look at some history of cancel culture, mix in a lot of our take on the issue, and wrestle with the standards God gives in Scripture. But the conversation isn't over until we see Christ and his forigiveness for all. Forgiveness is the only "cancel culture" that changes culture!
Dave and Will talk about vocation and how our callings in life are a part of who we are. Most importantly, being a Christian influences all our callings in life. For further commentary on the "Social Dilemma" check out 5tothrive.net (https://www.5tothrive.net/podcast/2020/11)
