What do we learn from The Feast of the Confession of St. Peter, celebrated by the Church on January 18? The Rev. Dr. David Lewis (associate professor of Exegetical Theology, director of the Master of Divinity and Residential Alternate Route Programs, Student Association adviser and the Dr. Jack Dean Kingsbury Professor of New Testament Theology at Concordia Seminary, St. Louis) joins Andy and Sarah to talk about The Confession of St. Peter, including this Sunday’s Gospel reading from Mark 8:27–9:1, what we discover in Jesus’ words to his disciples and Peter’s reply, and how we can learn about our own lives in the church from this story of St. Peter.

As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let’s be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world. Catch real-life stories of mercy work of the LCMS and partners, updates from missionaries across the ocean, and practical talk about how to live boldly Lutheran.
