1. You’re using theological coconuts! In this episode, Gillespie and Riley read and discuss The Schwabach Articles. Sin, faith, lots of Holy Spirit, and why the Schwabach Articles are the roots of Lutheran, Reformed, and Protestant confessions of faith.
  2. Dear Rome... Yeah, It’s Probably For The Best That We Never See Each Other Again. This week, Gillespie and Riley read and discuss Ulrich Zwingli’s 67 Theses defending the theological reforms in Zurich. Zwingli is provocative, sometimes hyperbolic, but driven by a zeal for the reformation doctrine of Christ alone for the salvation of sinners apart from their works.
  3. You have us the Good News now give us the goods! This week, Gillespie and Riley give Oswald Chambers a second go-round, reading and discussing The Collision of God and Sin.
  4. This Isn’t a Good Place for a Yogurt Shop. Riley and Gillespie tackle a daily devotion from one of the OG of the Holiness Movement, Oswald Chambers.
  5. How are we to understand election in Romans 9? What does it mean that God loved Jacob and hated Esau?
  6. Riley and Gillespie dig into the Doctor Angelicus and his catechism on Baptism.
  7. All views of election and predestination are not equal. These are doctrines meant to comfort and provide assurance.
  8. Should we sin because we are not under law? How do you talk about the law, the gospel and grace in light of the fact that we still sin?
  9. Paul sees an objection to the gospel he just laid out in chapter 5 coming and gets in front of it. Should we sin to increase grace?
  10. Paul describes the relationship between Adam/Sin and Jesus/righteousness. Why is a clean slate not enough?
  11. Daniel and Erick first spend some more time on verses 16 and 17. Why does Paul need to say that he is not ashamed of the gospel he preaches?
  12. Daniel and Erick continue their study of Romans. Paul is eager to get to Rome to preach the gospel to people who already believe.
