  5. In this episode, we discuss preaching to those in prison, the consequences of sin, and the power of the gospel. We read excerpts from Karl Barth’s prison sermons and converse about preaching, pastoral care to the vulnerable, where Jesus locates himself for the preaching of the Gospel, and how we can all “set the captives free” through the power of the Gospel proclaimed for the forgiveness of sin.

  7. We're back, baby! Craig and Troy reunite and use the occasion of Craig's new pastoral ministry to discuss what it means to be a pastor.
