Radical Grace/The Lutheran Difference

Today Pastor Gary's topic of choice was one that led us to wonder if the distinction of two kinds of righteousness could be found in the Old Testament. Get ready for a surprise.

We'll be off next week for Holy Week, but we'll have a rerun ready to go!

All throughout the centuries Christians get confused--or are made to be confused--about the righteousness that saves. If you're a newer listener and you're not sure what kind of righteousness saves, here's a hint: It's not what you think.

The life of a Christian is full of distinctions. There's Law and Gospel, and that's one you've hear a lot on this show, but how about Theology of Glory vs. the Theology of the Cross? Stay tuned as Pastor Gary sorts it out for us.

After the Christchurch New Zealand Mosque attack Chelsea Clinton was accused of using Hate speech that triggered the attacker to do what he did. Pastor Gary and I wondered if this "hate speech" idea has any similarity to "faith filled words", like "hate filled words" that somehow have an effect on the world around us.

Pastor Gary had an experience. No, not that he visited Israel, but one that he felt was worth sharing with our listeners. No, it's not one of those experiences either...

Pastor takes us through the Gospel reading for the First Sunday of Lent, Luke chapter 4, and shows us a connection between Jesus Temptation in the Wilderness Adam and Eve in the Garden.

Pastor Gary wanted to talk about the mission statement of the Church... Yeah, if a church has to have one, it should be this one.

Pastor Gary believes that most people (including pastors) don't know what to do with a passage like, "Therefore, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling". So he's going to do something with it.

Pastor wants to tell people (rightly so I might add) that they have their conception of the relationship with God backwards. And he has Bible evidence to prove it!

Since Pastor Gary has recently been Jappa, we thought we'd look at the passage in acts that takes place there... Except today it's not called Jappa, but rather Jaffa. Pastor will explain.
