1. In episode TWO HUNDRED AND THREE, Mike, Wade, and Jason continue their discussion of Helmut Thielicke’s A Little Exercise for Young Theologians. The guys think the book is worth reading, not only for young theologians, but all theologians, laity and the ordained.
  2. Craig and Troy discuss a very familiar parable which is very often interpreted incorrectly. Your works don't count. Oh, and substantival participles.
  3. We asked Chad Bird about what it means to wrestle with God. Later this summer, he's coming out with his book on Jacob: "Limping with God." Our discussion went from Jacob being renamed to "Israel" which means "wrestles with God" and how wrestling with God was a keyhole to the crucifixion.
  4. Jesus aims His third parable at the self righteous who think their own clothing is good enough to merit God's kingdom.

  8. "Meek and mild" Jesus goes righteous rage on those who would turn a buck on what God would freely give.
  9. The problem isn't your stuff, and it isn't your efforts. The problem is YOU. With God, even your salvation is possible, but on your own you're toast.
