  1. People enjoy listening to stories. We probably should tell stories. But why? What is it about stories that resonates and how can we tell them better?
  2. Speaking a specific message of grace in the Absolution is a chance to bring the healing balm of the Gospel not just to generic ills, but to the particular pain point exposed by the Law on this day.
