1. In one more episode before our interview, we wanted to go over Titus 2, which is often the prooftext given for the false idea that men and women are sanctified differently. This episode could fit both in our discussion of womanhood in the Bible, as well as verses frequently taken out of context.
  2. It seems like the Pharisees have marriage issues, but the real issue is the question "why do those who say they love the Law want to create loopholes to get around it?"
  3. What does it mean to become a child in order to enter the Kingdom of Heaven? Pride and earthly strength compete with Christlike humility.
  4. "Take up your cross and follow me" . . . what does this mean?

  6. In the constant search for new and novel experiences, are we forsaking the simple word of God? Beware of the leaven of novelty.
  7. The following several articles of Smalcald are concerned with the application of the Gospel.
  8. There has been a lot of calls to fear lately in our world. As alarming things happen in every news cycle, and fear feels like the responsible thing to do, Katie and Gretchen talk about how the opposite of fear isn't apathy, it's hope.
  9. Jesus came not only for the sheep, but apparently for the dogs as well. You won't believe what happens when she asks for a favor.

  11. Dr. Paulson continues working through Paul's use of Exodus in his letter to the Romans.
  12. One one level, Jesus does an impressive work of feeding 5,000+ with just a few rolls and some fish. But on a deeper level, we see Jesus preparing the eternal feast for you.
