  10. Do Lutherans even have a doctrine of predestination? I thought that was the Calvinists? This week, The Fellows discuss predestination, which is a little known or seldom talked about doctrine among Lutherans. Sit back, relax, and grab a drink to find out why predestination is a gift of assurance and not a tool to damn your neighbor.
  11. On this episode, the Thinking Fellows do things differently. Deviating from the typical Loci topics, the guys interview Pastor Brian Thomas. Brian Thomas is the author of 1517 the Legacy Project's latest book Wittenberg vs. Geneva. The Fellows talk about the book and briefly cover how Lutheranism differs from Calvinism. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.
  12. The Thinking Fellows discuss the human will and ask some important questions. What role does the will have in or on the Christian life? What does it mean for the will to be bound? And does the will have anything to do with faith or salvation? As usual, the Fellows look to Scripture and the teachings of the Lutheran Reformation for the answer. Sit back, relax, grab a drink, and enjoy the show.
