What is the church actually saying to teenagers at youth rallies? In this episode, we do something simple — and intentional. We attend a Friday night youth rally together and listen carefully to a long-form sermon, going in blind, without preloading conclusions or assumptions.

Romans 6: Simple or Not?

Theology Central ·

2026/02/23

Is Romans 6 really "simple"?This episode examines a common claim often heard in preaching—that Romans, and especially Romans 6, is clear and straightforward

Repent: 2,000 Years of Disagreement

Theology Central ·

2026/02/19

What does it actually mean to repent? After two thousand years of Christian history, disagreement over this single word remains as sharp as ever. And yet, many Christians today speak with absolute confidence, insisting the meaning is obvious, settled, and beyond debate.

Ash, Dust, and Forgiveness

Theology Central ·

2026/02/19

In this late-night reflection, we walk back through an Ash Wednesday service in the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, listening again to the words that linger after the ashes are gone: dust, confession, judgment, and forgiveness.

Ash Wednesday: Reality Wins!

Theology Central ·

2026/02/18

Ash Wednesday isn't inspirational. It isn't uplifting. And it isn't a spiritual self-improvement project. It is the church stopping long enough to tell the truth. In this episode, we examine Ash Wednesday through the lens of reality rather than sentimentality

Ezekiel 28: Prince or King?

Theology Central ·

2026/02/18

After The Great Satan Hunt, a listener raised an important question: why does Ezekiel 28 address the prince of Tyre and then the king of Tyre? Does this shift signal Satan—or something else entirely?

The Great Satan Hunt Pt 5

Theology Central ·

2026/02/17

In the final installment of The Great Satan Hunt, we bring the investigation to its conclusion. Even granting—temporarily—the claim that Satan appears in Ezekiel 28:13–15, verses 16–19 render that interpretation unsustainable.

Exodus 24:8 Throwing Blood

Theology Central ·

2026/02/17

Exodus 24:8 is one of the most jarring verses in the Old Testament. Without warning, Moses throws blood on the people and declares, "Behold the blood of the covenant." No explanation. No softening. No emotional framing. Just blood, covenant, and obligation.

Did These Readings Belong Together?

Theology Central ·

2026/02/16

On Transfiguration Sunday, the lectionary paired Exodus 24:8–18 with Matthew 17:1–9—Sinai and the Mount of Transfiguration. But did those readings really belong together, or did the lectionary simply place them side by side and invite us to imagine a connection?

Farewell to the Alleluia

Theology Central ·

2026/02/16

Many Christians have never heard of "the Farewell to the Alleluia," and yet it may be one of the most theologically powerful moments in the liturgical year.

Valentine’s Day: Bleeds or Feels?

Theology Central ·

2026/02/15

February 14 once remembered a martyr — love that bleeds. Today it celebrates romance — love that feels. What happened? And what does that historical drift reveal about human love, divine love, and the gospel itself?

Luke 15: Three Slaveries?

Theology Central ·

2026/02/14

Before moving into Chapter 1 of the book, we return to the introduction to examine a major theological claim: that Luke 15 presents three forms of slavery — a sinful flesh that wants to wander, a troubled conscience that fears it cannot return, and a "little Pharisee" living in our hearts — and that Jesus desires to set us free from each. But does Luke 15 actually teach this?

A Forgotten Lutheran Devotional

Theology Central ·

2026/02/13

Most modern devotionals try to comfort you first. Johann Gerhard does the opposite. Written in 1606, Sacred Meditations was once one of the most beloved devotional books in Lutheran history. Today almost no one reads it

The Older Brother Thesis

2026/02/12

Episode 1 begins our series Rethinking the Prodigal Son by examining the "older brother thesis" — the claim that the older brother is the central focus of Luke 15.

The Great Satan Hunt Pt 4

Theology Central ·

2026/02/11

The hunt continues. In Part 4 we examine Ezekiel 28:15–17 phrase by phrase. Trade, merchandise, violence, and judgment before kings—does this really sound like Satan, or a corrupt human ruler? We slow down, stay in context, and let the text speak for itself.

Hallmark Solomon

Theology Central ·

2026/02/11

Hallmark movies sanitize everything.Soft lighting. Clean characters. Happy endings. No messy reality.And sometimes… that's exactly how the church preaches the Bible.
