Are Roman Catholics Christians?
Caleb Keith, Adam Francisco, and Bruce Hilman address the opinion that Roman Catholics are not Christians. The fellows conclude that Roman Catholics are not by necessity excluded from saving faith and trust in Jesus Christ. This leads to a conversation about how specific confessions and denominations are still necessary, even if affiliation with the correct group is not the sole indicator of saving faith.

The Reality And Utility Of The Three Estates
The Thinking Fellows get together and discuss how the concept of three ordered estates helps inform Christians in living out their vocations. Why do we so often focus on the political estate while skipping over the family and the church when talking about the problems in our world? The Fellows propose ideas as to how to apply an understanding of the estates in your life.

Just Preach the Gospel
The Thinking Fellows discuss why defining the Gospel carefully and constantly is essential. Many Christian organizations claim their mission is to preach the Gospel, but more often than not, what they mean by "gospel" is the law or simple Christian living. How do organizations like 1517 deal with criticism that they reduce or ignore Christian living in favor of a "just preach the gospel" mentality?

Remembering Rod Rosenbladt
On this episode of the Thinking Fellows, we remember the legacy and impact of Rod Rosenbladt.
The 1517 family mourns the death of Dr. Rod Rosenbladt. For many, he was known as “Dad Rod,” and to others, he was known as professor, friend, and mentor.
To generations of budding theologians, he will be fondly remembered as a significant influence in molding and shaping their worldview by helping them to understand the freedom found in the nail-scarred hands and feet of Jesus as the Savior of the world.

How Do You Establish Christian Values?
People who leave the Christian faith frequently cite a misalignment of personal values as a driving factor. What can Christians do with this information? Are there ways to establish and hold onto Christian values from generation to generation? How do our vocations impact our obligation to uphold and teach valued principles alongside the essentials of the faith

Why is God Silent?
Is God silent? Can Christians hear the voice of God? Are there still prophets? The Thinking Fellows spend this week's episode addressing concerns and questions about the silence of God. Many people use God's supposed silence as proof of his existence. In contrast, others claim to have received specific revelations from him. The Thinking Fellows address the ways that God has and continues to speak to his creation.

Customer Reviews
Good and theologically sound
If you like conversational podcasts this one is for you. It gives a nice high level over view of topics. It helps provoke your own thoughts. Might be boring for some as it is a lot of opinion based conversation.
Interesting and informative
Thank you for this show, practical knowledge for me in my walk with Christ. Teaching me how to share the gospel with more confidence and loving hearing you discuss many other topics.
Very engaging show.
I really enjoy listening to these thoughtful & insightful gentleman discuss theological issues from a Lutheran perspective.
I always learn something and they do a good job of keeping weighty topics entertaining and informative.
