In this episode of "I Love to Tell the Story: A podcast on the Narrative Lectionary," Luther Seminary Profs. Kathryn Schifferdecker, Joy J. Moore, and Rolf Jacobson discuss Reformation Sunday in connection with Solomon's dedication of the temple. They explore themes of God's presence in imperfect institutions, the inclusivity of God's house, and the call for believers to reflect God's glory to all nations. The conversation highlights the importance of recognizing God as the God of all people, not just a select few.
