    That’s the Power of Love. In this episode, we discuss the shock of infatuation with theological concepts and young theologians' conceit while reading Helmut Thielcke’s A Little Exercise for Young Theologians. We converse about laity and clergy’s relationship to theology, piety, and polity. What is the purpose of theology, its study, teaching, and conversations? How can theology become deadly? What happens when the truth is detached from love? All this and more on a new episode of the podcast!

    Street-Fighting Man. In this episode, we continue our discussion of the question of when it is permissible for Christians to oppose civil authority.
