In this episode of The Concordia Publishing House Podcast, host Elizabeth Pittman speaks with author Rev. Andrew R. Jones about his newest book, Ten Lies Satan Loves to Tell . Andy dives into the truth that Satan lies to us all the time but helps us recognize and combat 10 of the major lies with God’s Word. Get Andy’s newest book at cph.org/tenlies . Show Notes “You need and deserve more.” “You should cover up your sins.” “You are too sinful to be forgiven.” Have you ever heard Satan murmur these lies into your ear? In Ten Lies Satan Loves to Tell , Andrew R. Jones identifies 10 lies Satan—the father of lies (John 8:44)—tells in an effort to dismantle God’s kingdom and God’s people.

Andy also talks about writing this book as a follow-up to his first, Ten Questions to Ask Every Time You Read the Bible , how he narrowed down all the lies Satan tells to just 10, what Satan aims to achieve through his lies, and how God provides us tools to defend against both sin and Satan.

Isaac is the translator of Reinhold Pieper's Evangelical Lutheran Homiletics, available now on cph.org . Show Notes Listen now as host Elizabeth Pittman and guest Isaac Johnson talk discuss his translation of Reinhold Pieper’s Evangelical Lutheran Homiletics, which offers a fuller understanding of the history of preaching within the LCMS as typified by C. F. W. Walther. Pieper, a student of Walther who would serve as a homiletics professor and president of Concordia Preachers’ Seminary from 1891–1914, dissects the task of preaching from start to finish as inspired by the classic German homiletics textbook by J. J. Rambach. Isaac talks about who Reinhold Pieper was, historical context behind Pieper’s writing, how Pieper has influenced his own work, and advice for pastors and the challenges they face in today’s fast-paced world. Questions Who was Reinhold Pieper? In the foreword, Dr. Adam Koontz writes Reinhold was “the heir of much and the preserver of more.” What motivated Reinhold to write this book, and what were the influences that he was working to preserve? How does this work reflect the influence of Reinhold’s teacher, CFW Walther? How does this book complement Walther's Law and Gospel as a preaching guide? What was the historical context in which Pieper wrote this book? How did this context shape his approach to preaching? How was this book used at LCMS seminaries before the transition to English?Pieper emphasized “strictly textual” preaching. What does this mean, and why is it important? Walk us through Pieper’s approach to sermon preparation. What does Pieper have to say about the preachers personal style, and how pastors can balance individuality with faithfulness to the text? How has Pieper influenced your own preaching? If you could ask him any questions about preaching in our modern context, what would you ask him? What advice might you expect Pieper to give to pastors today who are faced with the challenges of preaching in a highly digital and fast-paced world? About the Guest Isaac Johnson is the pastor of New Hope Lutheran Church in Charles City, Iowa. He is married to Kaite Johnson, and they have five children: Elise, Clara, Lyla, James, and Annie.

Lamentations – Concordia Commentary | R. Reed Lessing 39:47

منذ 15 weeks39:47

39:47

Listen to this episode of The Concordia Publishing House Podcast as author and guest R. Reed Lessing takes a close look at recent interpretations, historical and canonical settings, genres, and more in the book of Lamentations. Lessing provides his perspective on all of these things and more in the newest volume in the Concordia Commentary series that he authored - Lamentations - Concordia Commentary . Pre-order the next Concordia Commentary edition on the book of Lamentations on our website today or subscribe to the Concordia Commentary series to save 30% on all new and previously published volumes. Show Notes The book of Lamentations, marked by its tone of mourning, loss, defeat, and heartache, provides neither a pleasant nor an easy read. Nonetheless, it meets us in the valleys of suffering we inevitably face, offering a glimpse of hope in God’s faithfulness. In the newest Concordia Commentary volume on Lamentations, Lessing walks readers through this valley, providing insight into the history of interpretations, narratives, and theological context. Listen to the episode as Lessing talks with host Elizabeth Pittman about why Christians should read the book of Lamentations, the destruction of Zion with the temple in Jerusalem and its implications, the Law and Gospel parts included in the book, who he wants to reach with this commentary volume, and more. Questions Why should a Christian bother to read the biblical book of Lamentations? When we read through the English Bible, why not skip over this short book and go straight from Jeremiah to Ezekiel? Most of the book seems depressing. After all, it is a lament. Shouldn’t Christians rejoice always? What place does a lament have in the Christian life? Should lamenting be part of the corporate worship life of the church? Is Lamentations ever read as part of the lectionary in the church year? When and why? Much of the book mourns the destruction of Zion with the temple in Jerusalem. When did this happen in history? What was the prior history of Zion earlier in the Bible? What happens to Zion later in the Bible? Does Zion have anything to do with Jesus in the Gospels, or with the Christian hope expressed in the rest of the New Testament? Do any Christian hymns feature Zion and the temple? Do hymns include laments? Is the book of Lamentations all Law? Is there Gospel hope in it anywhere? It seems like the beginning of the book and the end of the book are all about judgment, death, and mourning. Wouldn’t it be better for a biblical book to start out happy and be optimistic at the end? If it has to have sad parts, why not hide them in the middle? In English the book is laid out as poetry. Is the Hebrew poetry? What constitutes Hebrew poetry? Does it have rhyme, or other things that mark it as poetry? Lamentations seems to repeat words and ideas in several lines or even a whole stanza. Why the repetition? Why not just say it concisely, once, and move on? What’s up with the letters of the Hebrew alphabet that are reproduced in English Bibles? Finally, who do you want to reach with your commentary? About the Guest Dr. R. Reed Lessing is the The Edwin F. and Esther L. Laatsch Chair of Old Testament Studies at Concordia University, St. Paul, Minnesota. He also serves as the University’s Director for the Center of Biblical Studies and oversees the University’s Pre-Seminary Program. Previously he was Senior Pastor at Saint Michael Lutheran Church, Fort Wayne, Indiana, and before that, Professor of Ex…

She also talks about how she first started writing the book, what it means to be spiritually anchored, how we can shine the light throughout the holiday season and the many gatherings that come with it, and more. Questions Talk about how the COVID-19 pandemic got you started thinking about writing this book, and how you think others may have related to how you were feeling at the time. How have you seen or witnessed actions of other people that turned out to be extraordinary? You mentioned being “spiritually anchored” in the book. Talk about what that means and how we can be sure we are spiritually anchored. How can we make sure to reserve time for our routines? What advice do you have for someone who is struggling and how do you remind them where they’re anchored during those times? For many of our listeners, one of the areas we serve is in the local congregation. When it comes to how we are helping in our local congregation, why should kindness be kept at the center of our interactions? What would you have wanted younger Martha of 20 years ago to know or resonate with from this book? What would you say to someone who has tried to help someone and has been burned in the past? Families will be gathering again soon during the holiday season. It can be easy to put our guards down and snap at somebody at these gatherings.

Show Notes Come join the Campbells as they test out churches in their brand-new town of Midway. They're looking to see which one fits their family and faith the best. Each church offers something different such as post-church refreshments, use of technology, outreach programs, or childcare. Even with all of these perks, do these churches still count as "good" or are they missing something pivotal to their worship services? Author Matthew Richard joins the podcast to talk about his new book and how he helps readers discover eight different churches, and how to be able to see what a good church has: Christ at the very center. Pastor Richard also discusses his first book in the series, Will the Real Jesus Please Stand Up?, who he came to write the second book, his own experiences as a pastor, and more.

Tell us about the distinction between friendship and biblical fellowship, and why it’s important in a congregation. Tell us about the architecture of a church and what it can tell us about the unity and purpose of a church. You draw the distinction between the Great Commission and the Great Commandment. Tell us how churches may get that misplaced. Talk about one of your example churches and how they are too focused on their status as people in the church. What happens when we put too much focus on social status in the church? Tell us why the three estates are important for the church and how you use Peace as an example. Trinity takes readers to the first church in the book that is very denomination focused. What are the good and bad aspects of denomination distinctions and at what point does fidelity to the denomination become problematic? What does the real church stand for and how do we recognize it? What would you say to someone who starts to look around their own church and are concerned their focus has strayed from Jesus? What do you suggest they do? What advice do you have for the pastor who is trying to ensure his congregation is staying focused on the true unity and purpose of the church?

In the overall timeline, where does the Church Order fall in terms of whole communities choosing to live as Evangelicals/Lutherans? What are the connections to the later developments politically concerning the Smalcald War, the princes' revolt, and the Magdeburg Confession?
