Law and Gospel (16)
  1. We are a sinning church with a preaching problem.
  2. Here’s what lurks beneath this seemingly righteous behavior: they wanted to make a name for themselves, these tower-builders.
  3. No wonder that when young people grow up in a law-saturated, grace-dry church, they leave the faith by droves for all they’ve heard their whole life is a life they can never live up to.
  4. Seeing, we do not see. Our eyes are busy deceiving us 24/7, like two liars sunk into our faces, calling black white and white black. To see God's work in our world, our eyes must retire and our ears labor overtime.
