  1. You Know, The Next Thing. In this episode, we continue reading Robert Capon’s The Mystery of Christ, and Why We Don’t Get It. We further discuss pastoral care, exegesis, the purpose of theology, and where Christian preaching points us.
  2. Jesus rejects what we believe is most necessary and instead points us to his pain, suffering, death, and self-sacrifice.
  3. People do not seek the gospel because they want to, but because God’s Word drives them to it.
  4. Advent is not a call to prepare to engage in a transaction with God.
  5. The proclamation of Christ's coming is for all people, at all times.
  6. Unlike human marriage, which is marred by sin, Jesus never seeks to divorce us due to irreconcilable differences.
  7. We are given the peace to know that all our sin is forgiven by our gracious God. We enjoy the comfort of knowing that our ways are watched over and protected by the Lord...
  8. The only reason we're aware of our old self is in baptism, God created a new self for us.
  9. The Enemies at the Gate. We conclude our reading and discussion of C.S. Lewis’ speech on Learning in War-time. More reflection on the three enemies, excitement, frustration, and fear.
  10. Know Your Enemy! C.S. Lewis explains why excitement, frustration, and fear can drive us to errs in judgment about ourselves, society, and God.
  11. Sometimes You Just Have to Hit The Reset and Start Over... Sometimes You Don’t. What happens to the church and society when we are incapable of critical thinking? Can we learn from our failures, and the attacks of our enemies? What happens to society when Christ isn’t publicly preached against sin, death, and the devil.
  12. Steel Our Christian Hearts. We continue with C.S. Lewis’ speech on Learning in War-Time. How important is it for Christians and society to read good books, to learn from our opponents, and to stand up for the truth?
