Today’s conversation covers “The Law of Ice Cream” reprise, the purpose of Law and Gospel, why your pastor is not your professional friend, piety versus pietism, why you shouldn’t be a lawmonger, and zigging with the Gospel, zagging with the Law. Guest Rev. Matt Gunia from Ascension Lutheran Church in Niles, Illinois, discusses Francis Pieper’s Christliche Dogmatik, or Christian Dogmatics, so that you know why you believe what you believe so that you will be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks for the hope that you have in the totality of who Jesus is, what Jesus has done, and what Jesus is coming again to do.
