  • God Be Praised

    Pastor Wolfmueller and Pastor Packer are a breath of fresh air. While remaining solidly confessional in their delivery, they present as approachable, caring - you know, pastoral. That cannot always be said for many confessional pastors who would rather just throw theology at you than care for the needs and wellbeing (even the emotions!!) of their parishioners. Thank you for this!

  • So much wisdom and truth

    I love listening to Pastor W. Always speaking from scripture so that I hear the truth. When the modern world is going off its rockers, I can always turn to prayer, scripture, and this podcast for peace of mind.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Theology Q&A: Is the Shroud of Turin Real? Are you Smarter than the Pope? Do Lutherans Believe in Soul Sleep More.
Q: Do you think you're smarter than the Pope?
Intelligence is not the measure; what matters is the spiritual authority to teach, rooted in Scripture, and the Lutheran insistence that the truth of doctrine comes from the Word of God rather than human cleverness.
Theology Q&A: Is the Shroud of Turin Real? Are you Smarter than the Pope? Do Lutherans Believe in Soul Sleep More.
Q: do Lutherans believe the soul sleeps until resurrection?
No, Lutherans do not believe in soul sleep; they describe an intermediate state where the soul resides with the Lord until the general resurrection, at which time the body is raised and joined to the soul in the new creation.
Q&A: What Does the Bible teach about God's plan for Israel? Disagreeing about communion with a spouse? More.
Q: How should engaged couples approach doctrinal differences to avoid a future impasse after marriage?
Engage in premarital instruction together, check each church's teaching against Scripture, and aim to align on essential practices before vows; if needed, accept that differences may persist but prioritize unity and ongoing pastoral guidance.
Q&A: What Does the Bible teach about God's plan for Israel? Disagreeing about communion with a spouse? More.
Q: What should she do about honoring her future spouse while disagreeing about communion and baptism before marriage?
They should study Scripture together with both pastors involved, focus on what Jesus wants to give, and let the sacraments force clear questions before deciding on baptism or communion; try to resolve before marriage, but if not possible, choose a church that allows shared worship while maintaining scriptural integrity.
Q&A: Can Women Write Theology Books? Luther on Assurance of Salvation
Q: Why do Luther insist on assurance so much?
Luther emphasized assurance because, when people confront the law and their sin, they need a reliable comfort from God; the conscience is pricked by the law and the gospel provides a concrete basis for confidence in salvation, especially through baptism and the preaching of the gospel rather than human works.
