Technology is the means by which we obtain certain goals, and using technology is part of being human. Yet in an age when technology increasingly dominates our lives, what does the Word of God have to say about it? Join us as we discuss why technology isn’t a neutral issue, some of what the Lord says about it, and why bringing up the Amish is a red herring.

The marriage of a pastor, like any man, shapes him and impacts his work. In this episode, we discuss Loehe’s reflections on the pastor’s marriage. Is celibacy a higher calling? How does the biblical qualification of “husband of one wife” relate to a widower or a divorced man? Is the calling of the pastor’s wife different from other wives? Join us as we continue our discussion of Loehe’s book “The Pastor.”

While idolatry remains a continual threat to God’s people, Israel faced a strong temptation because of the surrounding Canaanites and their religious practices. One such example that occurs frequently in the Old Testament is the worship of the Canaanite goddess Asherah, whose poles were set up even in the temple during the last days of the kingdom. Dr. Walter A. Maier III joins us to discuss idolatry and Canaanite religion in particular and what we can learn from Israel’s example today.
