Geneva needs Calvin, but does Calvin need them?  Will he go back?  We all know the answer, but the lesson from it is important.

Rev. Matt Powell joins to discuss James 4 as James teaches us where our strife comes from, and how we can deal with the problem.

Sorry for the lateness.  Some times life gets busy and includes out of town guests.  But here is a Pilgrim Talk Quick Thoughts on John the Baptist and Andrew from John 1. 200120_001

Do you think of yourself as a member of the Lord’s Army, at war with sin and temptation every day?  How do we view ourselves and how should we?

Several more discussions for unity happen culminating in the Diet of Regensburg in 1541.  We get see Bucer, Melanchthon, Luther, and meet a new player on the scene from Cologne.  Take a walk with us.

The Group returns to start the new year right.  And we are still in James.  James 3 to be exact, and the group talks about peace and righteousness and wisdom.

The Reformation had not yet given up on reconciliation with the Roman Church, and this is the first of a few meetings that need to be mentioned.  And surprise Bucer is involved.

So one more loner Pilgrim Talk before the gang gets back together.  And as the year ends, it seems like a good time to talk about stories of the year from a more religious perspective.  May Christ bless you richly in the year to come. 191231_001

We continue to wrap up the 1530’s as we take a look at what is going on in Hesse.  Specifically how the Hesse church was effected by Bucer toward the Reformed from the Lutheran. 191226_001
