1. Therapist Steve Lownes joins Craig and Troy for a discussion on theology and therapy. How are they the same, and how are they different?
  2. In this episode, we have Mike Cosper on from "The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill" and journalist for Christianity Today. We wanted to talk specifically on how law and gospel distinctions have an impact on the culture of a church, in regard to how we treat each other, and how we perceive our pastors.
  3. Today on the Almanac, we go to the mailbag to answer a question about musicians from various Christian denominations.
  4. Faith alone in Christ alone or a curse.
  5. The year was 399. We remember Pulcheria, the silent star of the 5th century. The reading is from George Herbert, “The Hold Fast.”
  6. The year was 1989. We remember Romanian pastor and dissident Laszlo Tokes. The reading is from Alan Jones, "May Christmas Come."
  7. The show is about nothing! Gillespie and Riley read nothing in this episode. Instead, it’s pastoral care debrief about the quarantine, worship, and how to balance faith and love.
  8. Jesus gives a long list of ethical demands for His disciples that seem contrary to everything that comes naturally.
  9. Our goal is to proclaim the genuine good news—that’s what “Gospel” means—of Christ’s forgiveness for you. We do not offer you better tips, techniques or checklists. Instead, You Are Forgiven is sermons by faithful pastors who will clearly show how you cannot be forgiven by your own efforts, no matter how well you do on your homework, your checklist of tasks. But they will also show how you are actually and already forgiven because Jesus has done all that is needed, for you!
  10. Chad, Daniel, and Brandon continue their discussion about Lot and Sodom and Gomorrah. There may be a lot more Gospel in this story than you think.
