Reformation History (385)
  1. Albrech Dürer is said to have brought the Renaissance north of the Alps and perfected the mass production and distribution of images.
  2. Kick Out the Jams. In this episode, we focus on the raw, real work of life in the parish—the ordinary burdens, the hidden insecurities, and the quiet faith that holds it all together. We explore the distinction between philosophy and theology and why attempts to fuse them often leave both diminished. There’s talk of reformation—its drama, its necessity, and its cost. We reflect on the pervasive victim-perpetrator dynamic that shapes so much of modern life and how the gospel when rightly preached, breaks that cycle. At the heart of it all is this: the power of Christ’s mercy to open what we’ve shut tight, to drive out the bitterness we’ve made into habit, and to speak a word stronger than shame.

  11. In this episode of The Outlaw God Podcast, Dr. Steven Paulson examines the accusation against Luther that he was the only person in church history to take a stance on the bondage of the will.
