Ministry of the Church (1641)
  1. David and Adam discuss a recent CBS show from its State of Spirituality series, which examines how atheists and agnostics are creating communities with their own set of rituals that often mimic Christian ones. You can find the show here.
  2. . . . and Rome looks at them and says, "What is this, a joke?" Far from it! Pastors Craig Donofrio, John Bombaro, Sebastian Grunbaum sit down with Bishop Juhana Pohjola as they prepare to participate in the ordinations of the first two pastors of the newly founded Confessional Lutheran Church of Italy.
  3. What I was missing—what so many are missing—is a Church that doesn’t just speak about Christ, but delivers him.
  4. Every time someone is baptized, every time bread is broken and wine poured, every time a sinner hears, “Your sins are forgiven in Christ,” Pentecost happens again.
  5. When Jesus ascends, he does so, bearing gifts for you.
  6. Craig sadly does an episode sans Troy with Rev. Dr. John Bombaro as Craig and John prepare to go to Italy for the founding of the Confessional Lutheran Church of Italy and the ordination of their first two pastors!
  7. On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson continue their discussion of Christ's preaching in John during Holy Week.
  8. Come Together, Right Now… In this episode, we read from Tim Keller’s sermon, which asks, “What is the Church?” We discuss the relationship between churches and culture, what the church is and isn’t, where we locate faith, whether Christian faith changes one’s values, and much more.
  9. “The fear of the Lord” is our heart’s awakening to and recognition of God’s outrageous goodness.
  10. The Fellows continue their conversation about Lutheran identity. This time, they discuss the term "evangelical."
  11. We needn’t fear statistics and studies as palm readings into a certain future. God is God, and his Spirit is alive through his Word.
