  • 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.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Q&A: Can we love apart from God? Is there a difference between murder and killing? Do Lutherans believe in individual illumination? More.
Q: What do you mean exactly by saying that the clarity of the scripture is also lost when an inner illumination of the Holy Spirit is needed to understand the text?
