Vocation (670)
  1. Believing stuff is about the stuff, not the believing. Gillespie and Riley read and discuss the book, Mission to Nuremberg. What happens when a pastor is called to minister to Nazi war criminals? This is the first of three episodes, where we talk about the power of the Gospel, state-sponsored religion, and pastoral care when it's attacked from outside and within the church.
  2. We confuse salvation and vocation in our quest to determine who is in control of our salvation.
  3. Jonathan saw in David a reflection of who he himself was. This recognition pulled him outside himself and bound him to another.
  4. Dr. Scott Keith and Caleb Keith sit down and talk about Scott’s latest book, titled, Where Two or Three Are Gathered.
  5. In some measure, if Luther had any success during his last two decades, it happened because of the woman who’d insisted on him as her bridegroom.
  6. Her importance goes beyond simply managing the reformer’s household.
  7. “What must I do to inherit eternal life?" Jesus answers that question with a parable. We have our own question: “Who am I in this parable?” But a better question is “Who is Jesus for me in the parable?”
  8. Paul wraps up his “missionary support letter” by seeking support for the church around the known world in both spiritual and physical ways. A lot of names are mentioned--some we know, some we don’t--but God has used them all.
  9. “I forgive you,” must be said and it must be said often in a marriage.
  10. As I sat there in the dark, empty church with my hands buried in the guts of a copy machine I was powerless to fix, I couldn't help feeling sorry for myself.
  11. When we hear freedom, we have to ask about its opposite, bondage.
  12. We have the freedom to joyfully participate in neighborhood fun with the love of our neighbor in mind.
