1. Baptized, Confirmed, and Ordained. In this episode, we discuss the early Lutheran formulation of calling and ordination of pastors and preachers. What is ordination, when does it happen, are their rules and rites that must be followed, and much, much more!
  2. You can call me any day or night. Call me! In this episode, we read Martin Luther’s verbosely titled treatise, “That a Christian Assembly or Congregation has the Right and Power to Judge all Teaching and to Call, Appoint, and Dismiss Teachers, Established and Proven by Scripture." We discuss ordination, church authority, the doctrine of the pastoral call, and much more.
  3. In episode TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-EIGHT, Wade, Mike, and Jason discuss doctrine (as opposed to doctrines) and how the Bible is a book about Christ and not a collection of proof texts.
  4. We Need to Get Ba’aled Out. In this episode, we read Warren Graff’s article, "Baalism in the Life of the Church," and discuss the roots of Baal worship in Israel and its consequences for Israel and churches today.
  5. Are accountability groups a good idea? The Thinking Fellows discuss the potential use of accountability groups in the church.
  6. Don’t be lukewarm, eat dinner with Jesus.
  7. In episode TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-FIVE, Mike, Wade, and Jason discuss the communion of saints and the one holy Christian/catholic and apostolic Church.
