Convention is getting closer! Where are we in the cycle, and what things are happening soon? The Rev. Dr. John Sias (Secretary of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod) joins Andy and Sarah to talk about where we are in the Overture to Resolution cycle, what will happen at Floor Committee Weekend, the types of overtures the floor committees will consider, where we are in the presidential election cycle, and everything that will happen when we gather in Phoenix in July. Find everything you need to know about convention at lcms.org/convention.

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.
