In this Adventures in Lutheranism conversation, Rachel shares the story of her return as interim managing editor to The Lutheran Witness magazine after a 7-year hiatus. Following a personal account of her recent professional transition, the discussion broadens out into the history of the LCMS's flagship magazine (in print since 1882!); a list of reasons why print is not, in fact, dead; and four ways in which Ladies' Lounge listeners can take part in this adventure themselves.

Number 2: #363. Sarah Goes to School: The Creed & Ancient Christianity
Class is back in session, as Sarah continues her diaconal studies at Concordia Seminary, St. Louis! In this episode, Sarah reviews material covered in her fourth class in Concordia Seminary's Online Deaconess Studies curriculum: Creedal Themes. This course examines in depth the church's ancient creeds, with a special focus on the Nicene Creed. Rather than simply lecturing, though, Sarah has other, more interactive plans for her cohosts: "You are both well-catechized Lutherans," she tells Erin and Rachel early on, "so I want to walk through the creed with you and ask you a bunch of questions!" Do you know the answers to Sarah's creedal questions? Review familiar concepts — and maybe even learn a few new ones — in this faith-forming (and faith-strengthening) conversation.

Number 3: #362. Leading Ladies: Curiosity with Oddball Leader Bri
What does curiosity have to do with effective leadership? Following up on her earlier Leading Ladies conversation, former co-host and regular guest Bri Gerzervske returns to the Lounge to discuss a key item on her list of Oddball Leadership values: curiosity. When leaders at all levels of the org chart embrace curiosity, says Bri, they are less likely to act impulsively and more likely to nurture a work environment in which everyone is free to speak and listen, learn, grow and collaborate for the sake of their shared mission.

Number 4: #357. Adventures in Lutheranism: Reading the (Whole) Bible
It’s time for another Adventure in Lutheranism — and this time, the Ladies are cutting to the very heart of the Christian’s daily life. In this episode, Sarah reports on her quest to read the Bible straight through for the first time in her life. Along the way, she also talks through a range of practical questions she’s had to answer in her first 187 days of consecutive Bible reading, including: What time of day is best for building a routine around the Word? Is a one- or two-year Bible reading plan better for beginners? Is it easier to establish a daily practice using a print, digital, app, or audio edition? Does journaling make it easier or harder to commit to a daily reading plan? How can one remain faithful during a busy season of travel and other disruptive commitments? Throughout, Sarah offers generous encouragement to listeners to start or maintain their own Bible reading plans as she shares the many positive benefits that this spiritually enriching daily discipline has already had in her own life.

Number 5: #365. Layers: 7th Anniversary + 365th Episode!
The Lutheran Ladies’ Lounge is celebrating its seventh anniversary and 365th episode — on the same day. Riffing off an idea first presented by author Heidi Goehmann, Sarah, Erin, and Rachel each present a range of seven-layer items — one food dish each, plus other assorted Lutheran Lady-related artifacts. From Erin’s loaf-pan lasagna to Sarah’s seven-levels of godparenting to Rachel’s seven-layer nightstand bookstack and more, the Ladies show that, seven years in, they’ve only begun to scratch the surface of what’s possible. Erin's Seven Layer Loaf Pan Lasagna 2 generous servings 1 - 1.25 cups canned crushed tomatoes 1 medium zucchini, sliced lengthwise into 1/8-inch ribbons Baby spinach- "some" .5 cup whole milk ricotta cheese .5 cup cottage cheese (or just use 1 cup of either ricotta or cottage cheese) .25 c parmesan cheese, plus more for finishing 1 egg 2 T basil pesto Fresh basil leaves- "a small handful" .25 t garlic powder Half a small lemon, zested 4 dried lasagna noodles, or enough to fill your loaf pan 1.25 cups shredded cheesy cheese salt & pepper Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease your loaf pan. In a small bowl, whisk together the whole egg, ricotta, cottage cheese, parmesan, pesto, garlic powder, lemon zest, and a good grind of black pepper. Assembly Instructions: Spread everything evenly, and always make sure the noodle is FULLY covered. Base layer: ~1/4 cup of tomato sauce (bottom of the pan) Layer 1: Lasagna noodle Layer 2: a quarter of the ricotta-pesto filling Layer 3: Zucchini slices. Light sprinkle of salt & pepper. Layer 4: Baby spinach leaves, just to cover. Layer 5: A light layer of shredded cheese. Layer 6: ~1/4 c of tomato sauce. Repeat layers 1-6 twice more. That will bring you to three lasagna noodle layers. Before placing the fourth and final noodle, spread out the basil leaves (the seventh layer!!). Then cover with the last noodle and spread the remaining ricotta-pesto filling over the top. Make sure no bare noodle remains. Top with a generous portion of shredded cheese and sprinkle on some parmesan as well. Cover the pan with foil. Give it enough space so that the foil doesn't touch the cheese. Bake for 45 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for 12-15 minutes more, until browned and bubbling. Let the lasagna rest undisturbed on the counter for 15-20 minutes before slicing. Notes: If the cheese isn't browning at the end, amp up the heat to 425°F for a few more minutes. Make sure the assembled, unbaked lasagna doesn't exceed the height of the loaf pan. You don't want it to bubble over, and you don't want the cheese to stick to the foil. Resting is important so the lasagna can "set". This allows you to serve a slice that holds together. It also allows it to be less molten and will be less likely to burn the roof of your mouth. If I wanted to scale this recipe, I would probably double it for an 8x8 or 9x9 casserole dish. And either triple or quadruple it for a 9x13. I would start by laying out dry noodles in the pan and seeing how many fit in a single layer. I would also increase the baking time to 60 minutes covered and then continue uncovered until browned and bubbling. Emalie and Rachel’s Seven-Layer Earth Cake Layer 1: Oreo/butter crumb crust — the bedrock Layer 2: Gummy worms — the wildlife Layer 3: Chocolate ganache — the subsoil Layer 4: Chocolate cake — the topsoil Layer 5: Green frosting — the grass Layer 6: White frosting — the clouds Layer 7: Rainbow candy ribbons — the rainbows Sarah's Yemeni Coffee Seven-Layer Cookie Bar 6oz super fine almond flour *20g super fine ground coffee1/3 tsp salt1/3 tsp cardamom1/3 tsp ginger3Tbs Maple syrup 1Tbs Olive oil The easy method:Mix all ingredients EXCEPT coffee until very thick (playdough consistency). If too wet, add more flour. If too thick, add more maple syrup. Split dough in half. Mix 20g super fine coffee ground into one half. Add more maple syrup if it becomes too dry.Split the coffee layer into 3 balls and the spicy layer into 4 balls. Roll each ball into similar sized shapes. Alternate in SEVEN layers spice/coffee/spice/coffee/spice/coffee/spice.Cut into small rectangles.Bake on convention (quick bake) at 400/375 for 12 minutes, rotating for another 5 minutes. Bars are done when almond flour begins to brown. * Different almond flours absorb different amounts of liquid. May need to edit amounts to get the right consistency.
