Ted asks about good news when we can't seem to shake sinful, even blasphemous, thoughts. Rod talks about which prevails in the end, Jesus Christ or our sins, the true difficulty we sinners can have with dark thoughts, who we are given to talk to, the confession and absolution service in a Lutheran hymnal, and the comfort we can receive in the promises we are given in Scripture.
