1. In today's episode of Tough Texts, Scott Keitth and Daniel Emery Price delve into Luke 12:13-21.
  2. Your Guilt Is Misplaced. In this episode, we discuss Robert Capon’s book, The Foolishness of Preaching. We focus on Capon’s argument for why death and resurrection must be preached for a sermon to be rightly called a Christian sermon, for it to be a Gospel proclamation, and the consequences for preachers who avoid addressing sin, death, and forgiveness of sins.
  3. Oftentimes when we are serving in ministry, we brainstorm outreach and growth. But what does growth look like when you live in a rural setting? What does growth look like when things remain small?
  4. Today we celebrate a blessed, happy, solemn Ash Wednesday. The reading for today comes from Malcolm Guite, “ Ash Wednesday.”
  5. The Thinking Fellows talk about repentance.
  6. Chief Priests, Scribes, Sadducees, and a harsh parable.
  7. Spies are sent out to check out the land God has promised them. It is everything God promised but the people who live there are enormous.
  8. 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!
  9. Jesus tells two stories foreshadowing Israel's rejection of Him and His death.
  10. Beza was the successor to John Calvin and is the subject of Dr. Mallinsons Ph.D. dissertation.
  11. Lutherans can often be misunderstood as rejecting the existence or necessity of good works. On episode 14 the Thinking Fellows discuss why this common misconception is not true. Sit back, relax and grab a drink to find out why good works are a fruit of faith and not saving grace.
