1. Gretchen and Katie move onto the 2nd Article of the Apostle's Creed, that discusses the 2nd person of the Trinity.
  2. Perms, and catechism. No, Gretchen and Katie are not going through middle school again, they are walking through the Apostle's Creed in Luther's Small Catechism.
  3. We recently had the chance to meet in person with our podcast producer: Caleb Keith, and so we took the opportunity to have a conversation with him about catechizing children. In other words: what do you want your kids to know about God before they grow up and leave the home?
  4. We are sitting down to talk about Bruno, and the other characters in the movie "Encanto."
  5. The culmination of our episodes on ontology and time is declaring that you are free to be.
  6. . . . or are we an evil and adulterous generation? The difference is whether the Holy Spirit will cause us to hear the Word, or not
  7. Continuing on our baptism discussion, and the power of God's Word, through physical means, Katie and Gretchen walk through their catechisms and think about the common struggles with the doctrine of baptism.
  8. Caleb, Scott, and Rod go through the Christian Questions and Answers section of the Small Catechism.
  9. Gretchen and Katie wrap up their conversation on parenting, otherwise known as "calling a thing what it is." They talk about confession and absolution in the home and standing back when we try to take over the Holy Spirit's role.
  10. In this unusual episode, recorded in Gretchen's basement, getting interrupted by children too often, Gretchen and Katie talk about parenting.
  11. On this episode we talk about Cinderella, the difference between circumstance and identity, God's gifts found in ordinary objects, and our longing for the "happily ever after" ending. We were inspired by an essay by J.R.R. Tolkien called “On Fairy Stories”. Ultimately, these fun stories stir up simple truths about ourselves, our God, and the greatest story we know in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
