1. A prophet is without honor in his hometown and Jesus doesn't do many miracles where they don't believe Him.
  2. Don't be a bad witness. Don't take a bribe. Take care of the poor. Help the one who hates you. Chad Bird and Daniel Emery Price talk about these instructions and how we love to apply the law to everyone but ourselves.
  3. In this episode Daniel Emery Price and Erick Sorensen get excited about the straight shot of gospel found in the parable of The Treasure in the Field.
  4. On episode SEVENTEEN of Let the Bird Fly! Wade breaks out on his own providing an expanded discussion of his blog post Beware the Fearmonger.
  5. It's more parables in this episode. There more be a lot more going on between the weeds, the wheat, and God than you think.
  6. There is a lot about crime and punishment in this episode. Some of these rules seem odd but there may be more going on in them than you think.
  7. The 10 Commandments may be in the rearview mirror but God isn't done speaking. Two kinds of fear? Instructions for altars. What is worship really about? Everything is religious?
  8. On episode FOURTEEN of Let the Bird Fly! we welcome Dr. Mark Braun back to discuss Lutheranism in America, and especially the split between the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod and the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (and, as Professor Teigen would point out, the split also involved the Evangelical Lutheran Synod).
  9. Who are Jesus' brothers, sisters, and mother? Are there greater realities than what we see with our eyes?
