    Psalm 147 Devotional - How Big Is God?

    Psalm 147 Devotional - How Big Is God?

    “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. He determines the number of the stars; he gives to all of them their names. Great is our Lord, and abundant in power; his understanding is beyond measure.” Psalm 147:3-5 
    How big is God? How big can you imagine God being? Does your understanding of God’s bigness influence your belief about him? I’d argue yes.

    Martin Luther’s 95 Thesis

    Martin Luther’s 95 Thesis

    Martin Luther's 95 Theses were a pivotal moment in church history. In 1517, Luther, a German monk and theologian, nailed these 95 statements to the door of the Wittenberg Castle Church, intending to spark a scholarly debate within the Catholic Church.

    Before the 95 Theses, Martin Luther's life was one of spiritual exploration and dedication, but it was this pivotal moment in 1517 that catapulted him onto the world stage and changed the course of Christianity forever.

    What do you need to know? Give it a listen!

    Resources on Martin Luther:
    - Here I Stand - Roland Bainton
    - Luther - Eric Metaxes
    Works of Luther himself mentioned: 
    - Three Treatises
    - The Bondage of the Will
    - Table Talk - a collection of discussions recorded by Luther’s companions.

    What Is The SBC and What Is All The Hubbub About?

    What Is The SBC and What Is All The Hubbub About?

    We have probably heard a lot about the SBC, or we grew up in an SBC church, or maybe you didn’t know what the SBC was. This podcast is meant to inform and not to persuade. There are a lot of articles and opinions and such that are out there. This episode is merely to help you, the listener, know the issues at stake contextually and for you to make your own judgment.

The Old Jake ,

Decent

Decent podcast. The material is good. But I will be honest and say I was hoping for more weightlifting instructional talks and reviews of early 2000’s romantic comedies. Other than that it works.
