Ted asks about what was so critical that Luther rediscovered in Scripture. Rod talks about the idea of justification, what it means to be ‘declared as if just’, what this discovery meant with regard to Rome, what it meant for Luther personally in his desperation, and how when Jesus said, “It is finished.”, it means exactly that.

Ted asks about struggling with fear that, finally, my sins have become more than Jesus’ forgiveness will cover. Rod talks about who Jesus spent time with consistently, what those people were like, and what message He had for them and what He promises to and for sinners—even sinners who continue to sin, even while believing in Jesus Christ, like St. Paul.

Ted asks about God’s plan for me and what to do if I’m stuck in a vocation I don’t like, referencing text from Mark 8:37. Rod talks about what we are promised in God’s word, recognizing that, in our sin, we are tempted to seek certain specific instructions from God about how to live our lives, and how to handle the idea that God wants us to do particular jobs.

Ted asks about whether evangelical Christians are out-performing Lutherans in their pursuit of fellowship. Rod talks about promises of Christ, speaks about what Lutherans call ‘the consolation of the brethren’ and how such an idea rests in the Reformation, how it is that we encourage one another, and finding confessions so that we can absolve one another.

Ted asks about whether God calls people to particular lines of work in their life. Rod talks about the promises of God, what He worked to gift to us, what God makes clear is most important for us in the church, what doing work in and for the church can do to us, and what believers do secularly every day to glorify Christ.

Ted asks about what it means when we fail to trust Christ and His grace. Rod talks about how we sinners WILL be sinners to the end, and how Christ’s forgiveness is ALWAYS greater, and how much he wishes certain people who are crushed by their sins could come to a place of understanding the sufficiency of Christ’s grace and not suffer that way anymore.

Ted asks about how the church can sometimes mis-categorize a problem as though it was an outcropping of sin. Rod talks about what pastors are and are not trained in, and what a wise pastoral response might be, looking to sin as the origin of the problem only if absolutely necessary.
