Reformation Figures (340)
  1. Christmas: the Perfect Time of Year for a Theologian of the Cross! In this episode, Gillespie and Riley read from a Christmas sermon by their favorite heretic, Martin Luther. They discuss Mary's example of how God makes theologians of the cross through suffering, oppression, weakness, and hopelessness.
  2. Christmas wrecks all attempts to penetrate God's hiddenness and seek him out in Heaven. He comes to us clothed in our humanity.
  3. On episode EIGHTY-THREE of Let the Bird Fly! Mike and Wade welcome back Dr. Paul Lehninger and Rev. Greg Lyon to discuss Christmas.
  4. The Pope Leo X used the psalm description of a boar uprooting grape vines in a vineyard as a metaphor for what the upstart German monk had been doing at that backwater university.
  5. Luther’s theology lets the believer in Christ dwell under the cerulean sky of God’s unchanging grace.
  6. “Whatever you do, don’t share the Gospel with me?” Those were my exact words to my slightly mystified seminary professor. As he set his coffee down, I could tell that he was holding back in an effort to allow me to process what I was thinking.
  7. God’s gifts are received, and the faithful heart offers gratias, and thanks are given in return.
  8. The more that we hear the law, the more we recognize others as those who, like us, are torn and tattered by the wounds of sin and brokenness.
  9. Jesus is the Word of God. God’s Word—on two legs (John 1:14). I’d read it in the first chapter of John’s Gospel many, many times.
  10. The thing seems incredible, and I would not have believed it myself, nor have understood Paul’s words here, had I not witnessed it with my own eyes and experienced it.
  11. On this episode, the Fellows focus on apologetic questions brought up from recent episodes and listener questions. Starting by questioning and analyzing possible methods for reaching the post-modern mind, the Fellows then move on to the question, did Luther practice apologetics?
  12. A part of our series on Luther's, Heidelberg Disputation.
