In SESSION ELEVEN of this new series, Wade discusses the need to figure out what needs to be cut out of our diet or practice (treason) and what can be managed (treats).

Joel is a graduate of CSL and Jason is a current student. Jason seems to plan to continue his studies, so we must not have been too hard on CSL or the LCMS. Joel joining us means we have now produced first ever episode with the whole theology department participating (there are only four of us in the department right now, although we hope that will change soon).

00:00 - Introduction 00:00 - Free-for-All (No Free-for-All) 8:15 - Main Topic (Systems, Faces, and Vocations)In episode TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY-ONE, Mike, Jason, Wade discuss systems, faces, and vocations. It's easy to get caught up in causes, in sweeping programs, in grand schemes, but Christ calls us to love our neighbor right where we find him or her. How do we balance political involvement and policy concerns with daily life and real people. Drawing on a scened from the Grand Inquisitor section of the Brothers Karamazov by Dostoevsky, we talk about the importance of loving people with faces, concretely, in the vocations God gives us, when and where we find them, through the freedom of the gospel, rather than being paralyzed, consumed, or distracted by the abstract.

00:00 - Introduction 00:00 - Free-for-All (No Free-for-All) 21:30 - Main Topic (Ministry Talk with James Metsger)Wade has friends, or at least a friend! In this episode we prove it. In episode TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN, Jason and Wade talk to Pastor James Metsger of Christ Point in Charlotte, North Carolina, one of Wade's best friends since high school. This was our first attempt at hosting a remote guest with the new equipment, and Wade was thrilled and grateful that James was able to be that first guest. While they took different paths and serve in different denominations (Wade is Lutheran and James is not Lutheran, and lets Wade refer to him as a Baptist for purposes of the episode, and because he knows from decades of experience that Wade is going to say what he wants no matter what), they both found their way into ministry. After years of talking about recording something, they finally did, and talked about their experiences and lessons learned since their days together in their youth. Jason adds perspective from his ministry as well, and gets to bond with James under the cross of friendship with Wade. We hope you enjoy the episode! We are grateful to the 1517 podcasting network.

00:00 - Introduction 00:00 - Free-for-All (No Free-for-All) 9:30 - Main Topic (Promise and Curses: Genesis 3)In episode TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTEEN, Mike, Jason, and Wade continue the guys' discussion of anthropology. We focus especially upon the relationship between God's promise and the curses at the end of Genesis 3 and how the gospel predominates, even in this darkest moment in mankind's history, the fall into sin, when death came into the world. They also test out new equipment, which we got a while ago, but Wade just now finally figured out. We hope it improves the sound of the podcast and it will make having guests on remotely way easier, so get ready for some fun guests. We had a guest or two lined up this week, but the weather put an end to that. Please feel free to email the weather to complain. As you'll notice, we can now incorporate sound effects, too, which Wade maybe enjoys too much. We hope you enjoy the episode! We are grateful to the 1517 podcasting network.

00:00 - Introduction 00:00 - Free-for-All (No Free-for-All) 16:10 - Main Topic (Novus Ordo or TLM, Roman Catholic Worship Wars)
In episode TWO HUNDRED, Wade and Mike discuss recent debates about the Roman Mass between advocates for the TLM (Traditional/Tridentine Latin Mass) and the Novus Ordo (the Roman Mass after Vatican II). We begin to delve into some of the recent writings issued and measures taken by Pope Francis in this regard, but will really get into the pertinent documents more in the follow-up episode. So, what's up with the fight about Roman Masses, TLM or Novus Ordo? Why should Lutherans care about it? What can we learn from it? What's the history? Should Luther be blamed for it all? What does it say about the relationship between religion and culture? Should the boomers be blamed for it all? We get into this and other topics as we try to make sense of things. We hope you enjoy the episode!

In episode ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY-SEVEN, Wade and Jason are joined by Pastors Greg Lyon (WLC) and Collin Vanderhoof (Pilgrim Lutheran, Menomonee Falls) to discuss the ministry, especially why they went into it and what keeps them in it, despite the challenges. We really enjoyed this one and are hoping we can get Greg and Collin back on soon to keep the discussion going. We are releasing it early because we discussed the MLB trade deadline (today) for the free-for-all and whether our teams (Brewers, Twins, Tigers, and Cubs) were buyers or sellers, and what we thought of the action so far. If you don't care about baseball, remember that the time stamps are above, so you can skip right to the main topic. We hope you enjoy the episode!

00:00 - Introduction 00:00 - Free-for-All (What Saint Would You Name a Church After?) 08:30 - Main Topic (The Lord's Supper: A Thesis)
In episode ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-NINE, Mike and Wade get feisty. They've been doing this podcast for a long time now, and they figure they've earned the right to be a little blunt. Without letting Mike know beforehand, Wade chose the topic for the episode, knowing it would lead to vigorous discussion. Wade introduces a simple thesis: The Lord's Supper is the very body and blood of Christ, given for the forgiveness of sins, life, and salvation. If that thesis is true, what does that mean for Christian theology, the Christian life, the divine service, piety, etc.? Once Wade winds Mike up, they give the topic a good go. There's a lot more to discuss here, but this is what came to mind first. We hope you enjoy the conversation! If the guys get you worked up, too, maybe that's not a bad thing. It's an opportunity to step back and ask why that is. Maybe it's because the guys were feisty and talking nonsense, but maybe not...?
Oh, John wanders in halfway through the episode, because he was the worship coordinator for the district convention held at the college. After a few minutes, it was pretty clear he realized the guys were worked up. Kudos him for handling things so pastorally at the end when Wade insisted he jump on a mic before things wrapped up.

00:00 - Introduction 13:30 - Free-for-All (What Saint Would You Name a Church After?) 29:00 - Main Topic (Why All the Other Stuff Matters)
In episode ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-EIGHT, Mike and Wade discuss why the liturgy, church architecture, music, art, etc. all matter so much, especially when preaching in general is not so great. For the free-for-all, we discuss what saint we'd name a church after if we were starting a new church. You get some serious answers and some less serious. We hope you enjoy the conversation!

In the SIXTY-SIXTH session of our Wingin' It series on the Life of Luther, Wade and Mike wrap things up. This series started in December of 2018. It has been quite the undertaking, but very beneficial for both of the guys as they've worked through everything. Even if you've not listened to the series so far, the finale is worth checking out, as they discuss why Luther matters, his place today, what his lasting contributions to the church have been, and the dangers of trying to "play Luther," among other things We hope you enjoy the session and, if you haven't, maybe check out the series. There is one "earmuffs" moment, but Wade gives ample warning beforehand, so don't blame him if you hear a colorful word. If you need to blame someone, blame Jason for not being there to keep order.

In episode ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-SEVEN, Mike, Wade, and Jason (enjoy him here, because he's off to travel the world and won't be with us for a while) discuss catholicity and why Lutherans are at their best when they are their most catholic (for instance, with the Augsburg Confession). The guys discuss how we should be catholic in liturgy, music, art, history, and other ways, if we want to be truly Lutheran as the reformers conceived of their theology and mission.

This turned into a really helpful conversation for the two of us and may lead to a few more episodes. We hope you enjoy the conversation!

00:00 - Introduction 0:00 - Free for All (No Free for All) 13:00 - Main Topic (Why Genesis?)
In episode ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-ONE, Wade and Jason (Mike should know better by now than to leave us unattended) discuss Genesis. Why was it written? Why has the Christian Church emphasized it? Why is it harder to get around its content than we might think? Why is it such a fruitful book for study still today, for knowing God, our neighbor, our world, and our selves better? We hope you enjoy the conversation!

We hope you enjoy the conversation!

In episode ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-SIX, Wade, Jason, and Greg discuss the place and role of a college like WLC in higher ed. With so many schools out there, what need is there for one such as ours? Greg brings his perspective as a campus pastor for seven years now, Jason provides the fresh voice of a n00b, and Wade speaks from eight years of experience teaching theology, history, and philosophy. As you can probably tell from the length of the episode, Mike couldn't join us, and things got a little out of hand. Along the way, we also manage to talk Lent, druthers, Jason's dashing fashion as of late, Moroccan vanilla, whiskey barrels, and autographed canoe paddles. We really enjoyed the discussion, and we hope you do, too!

00:00 - Introduction 02:37 - Free-for-All (Last Meals) 09:45 - Main Topic (Preaching on Social Issues)
In episode ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY-TWO Wade and Mike discuss the difficulty of preaching the law and on social issues in particular. How can a preacher maintain the prominence of the gospel and still speak about sanctification? How can a preacher leave the listener with the precious gospel and still speak about the world in which the Christian lives? We hope you will enjoy this discussion on how to preach on social issues.

In the THIRTY-SIXTH episode of our Wingin' It series on the Life of Luther, Wade and Mike highlight the life and work of John the Steadfast. Although not as famous as his brother, Frederick the Wise, or as large a personality as his son, John Frederick the Magnanimous, John is an important figure of the Reformation. As Elector of Saxony, John was instrumental in the formation of the Schmalkaldic League, “protested at the Second Diet of Speyer, and was a signer of the Augsburg Confession. We hope that you will enjoy this brief biography of John the Steadfast, Elector of Saxony.

In episode ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY-ONE Mike invites back Rev. Justin Cloute to talk more James K.A. Smith. This time they are joined by Benj Lawrenz for a discussion on Smith’s Cultural Liturgies series. Smith makes the case that humans are, at their core, lovers. He takes it one step further and declares humans liturgical animals. Everybody worships. We are formed (and malformed) by secular liturgies which surround us every day. Justin, Benj, and Mike discuss how this insight changes the way we might look at humanity, culture, worship, and education. A big thanks to Justin and Benj for joining Mike on this episode.

In episode ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-EIGHT Mike and Peter are joined by returning guest, and local physicist at Wisconsin Lutheran College, Dr. Kerry Kuehn. On this episode the three sit down to discuss Stuart Firestein's book Ignorance: How It Drives Science.
At the end of the episode, Dr. Kuehn and Mike discuss the summer apologetics academy that they co-founded called Blackearth Apologetics.

00:00 - Introduction 03:37 - Free-for-All (Most exciting thing during the lockdown Best forms of dueling) 11:43 - Main Topic (The Human Touch)
In episode ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SEVEN Mike and Peter return to the studio to discuss The Atlantic article entitled: 30 Years Ago, Romania Deprived Thousands of Babies of Human Contact. (I think it was that uplifting title that caught Mike's attention.) Before discussing the importance of human contact (especially in the early developmental stages), the guys try to get back into the podcasting swing with a Free-for-All. Oliva, who has joined them for this episode, takes a stab at it, but it doesn't go so well. Fortunately Mike and Peter remember they can talk about "civilized" ways of disputing, so they pull it together. It's been a bit since our last episode, we hope this gets to be a more regular thing again soon.

00:00 - Introduction 03:37 - Free-for-All (Most romantic means of transportation) 11:43 - Main Topic (How about Liturgical Worship?)
In episode ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SIX Mike is joined by Peter to discuss the role that liturgical worship may serve to answer some of modernity's crises and why the draw to the historic liturgy crosses time and denominations. They take as their springboard the opinion piece penned by Tara Isabella Burton in the May 8, 2020 edition of the New York Times, entitled Christianity Gets Weird: Modern life is ugly, brutal and barren. Maybe you should try a Latin Mass. Before getting to the topic at hand, however, the guys try their hand at being romantic, as they try to think of the most romantic means of transportation (Mike might do slightly better than Peter in this one, but we'll let you decide).

In the THIRTY-FIFTH episode of our Wingin' It series on the Life of Luther, Mike and Wade continue their walk through the life of Martin Luther. While there are many important and intriguing characters they have encountered along the journey, the most fascinating might be Lucas Cranach. In Part 35 of the series the guys discuss this unsung partner of Luther’s. We recommend The Serpent and the Lamb: Cranach, Luther, and the Making of the Reformation as a great primer on Cranach and his role in the Reformation. Another great resource is the Cranach Digital Archive where you can explore not only Cranach’s art but scholarship on the great artist, mayor, pharmacist, business man, promoter, and all around talented guy. We hope you will enjoy our latest episode on the Life and Thought of Martin Luther.

In episode ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-THREE Wade and Mike welcome guest Rev. Daniel Waldschmidt of St. John’s Lutheran in Burlington, WI in order to discuss the New Perspective on Paul. Rev. Waldschmidt patiently explains to the guys what this new view of St. Paul entails. While this topic is complicated, Rev. Waldschmidt does a nice job of explaining the basics of this view and how it doesn’t match up with the traditional Reformation reading of St. Paul and his epistles. Rev. Waldschmidt is certainly qualified to speak on this topic having studied it during his Masters work at Trinity International University’s Divinity School and having presented an essay on the topic at Wisconsin in Lutheran Seminary. You can find a digital copy of that essay here. A big thanks to Rev. Waldschmidt for joining us on this episode!

00:00 - Introduction 05:55 - Free-for-All (Predications: Politics 2020) 16:42 - Main Topic (The Eleven Nations of the United States)
In episode ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-TWO Wade and Mike sit down with Rev. Dr. Paul Lehninger of Wisconsin Lutheran College to discuss the work of author Colin Woodard. Woodard believes that there are eleven distinct nations which comprise the United States (and Canada and Northern Mexico). These rival nations have remained consistently cohesive throughout U.S. history. Woodard offers presidential election results to prove his claim. If this is true, it provides a more nuanced look into politics and culture than the usually blue state/red state divide. We hope you will enjoy the discussion. And a big thanks to Dr. Lehninger for joining us once again! Links to two of the Woodard books mentioned in this episode:

In this Bird's Eye View episode we bring you a talk that Mike gave in February 202 at St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Mukwonago, WI. The talk was given the day before Valentine's Day, but Mike assured the audience that that was mere coincidence (evidently he and Rev. Bortulin don't always remember the date of Valentines day...shocking, really).
Although the title might suggest that Mike discussed C.S. Lewis's work The Four Loves, in reality he just stole the idea and did his own thing. If you are interested in a discussion of C.S. Lewis's work, though, we did cover that way back on Episode 45, so go check that one out. In this talk, Mike uses the structure that Lewis presents to discuss the way in which God's love for us (agape) animates all other love through us, even if imperfectly. A big thanks to St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church for inviting Mike to speak. If you find yourself in or near Mukwonago, WI, make sure to stop by and check them out!

In the THIRTY-FOURTH the guys discuss the debate between famous humanist, Desiderius Erasmus, and Martin Luther, who reluctantly battled over the doctrine of the will as it relates to salvation. In 1524 Erasmus wrote his diatribe On the Freedom of the Will. Luther responded about a year later with On the Bondage of the Will. Wade and Mike continue their series on the life of Luther by providing some historical background on this debate and summarizing both sides.

00:00 - Introduction 04:15 - Main Topic (The Spiritual Age: What Lurks Beyond Postmodernism)
In episode ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-ONE Wade and Mike discuss the ebb and flow of culture throughout history through the lens of two men: Pitirim Sorokin and Frederic Baue. Sorokin was the Russian born sociologist who founded the Sociology department at Harvard University. Baue is a retired Lutheran pastor who took Sorokin’s book, The Crisis of Our Age, and applied it to contemporary culture in his book The Spiritual Society: What Lurks Beyond Postmodernism. We invite you to listen to the guys apply these authors’ works to the church and society.

00:00 - Introduction 04:24 - Free-for-All (Animal least expected to be as deadly as it is) 16:37 - Main Topic (The Pauline Epistles)
In episode ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY Wade and Mike invite Wisconsin Lutheran College’s disease expert, Dr. James Henkel, back onto the show. This is the second time Dr. Henkel has come onto the podcast. We invite you to listen to his previous visit way back on Episode 23, entitled The Guys Get Disease (and if you haven't listened to that episode, do yourself the favor of giving it a listen, it's a fun one). This time the guys talk viruses and pandemics. Wade brings the Free-for-All topic, which asks the guys to discuss which animal is the most dangerous even though it looks innocent. (Spoiler Alert: Wade’s thinks its chickens.) A big thanks to Dr. Henkel for joining us once again!

In episode ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-NINE Wade and Mike sit down to discuss the Pauline Epistles. They walk through some of the specifics, but generally attempt to take an overview of what Paul seems to be doing in his letters and why his writing is so important to the church. We hope you enjoy the conversation!

In the THIRTY-THIRD episode in our Wingin’ It series on the life of Martin Luther, Mike and Wade introduce Katherine von Bora. The former nun and wife of Martin Luther, has an interesting story in her own right. We hope that you will enjoy the discussion of this remarkable woman who has been dubbed “The Mother of the Reformation”. Here are some links to two biographies on Katie Luther:

00:00 - Introduction 06:36 - Main Topic (The Death of Expertise)
In episode ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-EIGHT Wade and Mike take a look at Tom Nichols’ book The Death of Expertise: The Campaign against Established Knowledge and Why It Matters. Nichols makes the case that ignorance may be the biggest threat to a democratic republic. The guys largely agree with Nichols’ warning and add their own (non-expert) insight. Problems with journalism, higher education, technology, consumerism, and the general skepticism towards “elite experts” in our culture are all discussed. We hope you will enjoy listening to Let the Bird Fly’s take on this critically acclaimed book.

In the THIRTY-SECOND episode in our Wingin’ It series on the life of Martin Luther, Mike and Wade discuss Thomas Müntzer. The radical reformer, who was once a student of Luther, turned to German mysticism that eventually to violence in his attempt to bring about a new age of Christendom. Take a listen as the guys discuss this controversial figure of the 1520’s.

00:00 - Introduction 15:16 - Main Topic (It Can't Happen Here ... or Can It?)
In episode ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-SEVEN Mike and Wade discuss Sinclair Lewis’ It Can’t Happen Here, a 1935 dystopian novel of how fascism took hold in the United States. The guys compare and contrast Lewis’ fiction with the current political climate. What is fascism? Why did Lewis think 1930’s America was vulnerable to a corporate state when so many people believed “it can’t happen here”? And could it happen in our own day? While there are some eerie similarities, the lessons to be learned from Lewis are not necessarily political but have to do with humanity, freedom, and the two kingdoms. We hope you will enjoy this foray into this Nobel Prize winner’s novel.

00:00 - Introduction 08:00 - Free-for-All (What age of history you'd least/most like to have lived in?) 23:47 - Main Topic (The American Revolution)
On episode ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-SIX Mike and Wade are joined once again by Dr. Aaron Palmer from the history department at Wisconsin Lutheran College. Before getting to the American Revolution, which is Dr. Palmer's area of expertise, the guys ask and answer the question: In what age of history would you least/most like to have lived? in the Free-for-All. Also, Wade figures out how to use a clock as a timer much to Mike's chagrin. A big thanks to Dr. Palmer for joining us once again!

In the THIRTY-FIRST episode in our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther, Wade and Mike discuss the so-called Peasants' War, which took place from 1524-1525 (yes, they're still in the mid-1520's). In this episode the guys look at what drives the Peasants' War, as well as attempt to dig into the mind of Luther as he attempted to respond to this civic revolt as a de facto leader of the burgeoning reformation within the church Let the Bird Fly! is supported by the 1517 Podcast Network, which is part of 1517.org.

On episode ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FIVE Mike and Wade are joined once again by Rev. Dr. Paul Lehninger, who teaches with Wade an Mike at Wisconsin Lutheran College in the theology department. Last year Dr. Lehninger joined the guys for a Christmas episode entitled On Christmas with Athanasius, Lewis, and Luther. This year they welcome him back for a Christmas episode on the communication of attributes in the person of Christ...so the most Christmas of stories! The three of them get us in the mood for the season by discussing their favorite Christmas hymns in the free-for-all, before diving into a topic that has been at the heart of controversy in the church for nearly as long as the New Testament church has existed. A very Merry Christmas from all of us at Let the Bird Fly! to you and all of yours!

On episode ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FOUR Mike and Wade welcome back Rev. Dr. Phil Huebner from Wisconsin Lutheran High School in Milwaukee, WI to continue their discussion on children in church. This is the topic of Rev. Dr. Huebner's dissertation, which is entitled “What to Do with Children in Church? A Study on Helping Parents Engage Their Children in Worship.” In this episode the guys focus more on the sub-title Helping Parents Engage Their Children in Worship.

In the THIRTIETH episode in our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther, Wade and Mike discuss the role of Ulrich Zwingli in the Reformation. Zwingli serves as Luther's counterpart in Switzerland, as well as something of a foil to Luther in the Reformation in a larger sense.

In the TWENTY-NINTH episode in our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther, Wade and Mike continue their march through the life and times of Martin Luther. In this episode they step back to take a bit broader view of the burgeoning Reformation in the 1520s. During this period the Reformation had clearly taken hold in electoral Saxony, so it seems like a good time to step back and take a look at some of the themes from the early days of the Reformation.

On episode ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-THREE Mike and Wade are joined by Rev. Dr. Phil Huebner from Wisconsin Lutheran High School in Milwaukee, WI to discuss children in church. This is the topic of Rev. Dr. Huebner's dissertation, which is entitled “What to Do with Children in Church? A Study on Helping Parents Engage Their Children in Worship.” Before getting to the main topic, however, the three decide to discuss what they most miss from being in the parish, as well what they most enjoy about being in the classroom.

00:00 - Introduction 06:14 - Free-for-All (Course you liked the best, but didn't pursue further) 17:40 - Main Topic (Apologetics)
On episode ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-TWO Mike and Wade are joined once again by Dr. Kerry Kuehn, who was a guest very early on (before he realized what this podcast was all about). We are fortunate to have duped him into joining us again (probably because Mike has since joined the podcast and brought some level of respectability to it). Dr. Kuehn is a physicist, which is the topic we (sort of) discussed with him on his previous episode. In this episode, however, we discuss another area that he's spent time pursuing: Apologetics. In fact, Dr. Kuehn and Mike co-teach a summer course at Wisconsin Lutheran College on the topic. So if this conversation interests you, make sure to check out the course this coming summer and you can find a few other discussions we've had on the topic right here. A big thanks for Dr. Kuehn for putting up with us once again.

00:00 - Introduction 05:28 - Free-for-All (Highs and Lows of the past semester) 13:42 - Main Topic (Noam Chomsky & Michel Foucault)
On episode ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-ONE Mike and Wade sit down to discuss Noam Chomsky and Michel Foucault, two philosophers who will challenge you to ask questions that you didn't even know you had, as well as some that you will probably decide you still don't have. Before getting to the philosophers, though, Wade and Mike use the free-for-all to complain about the things they don't like about their current semester (and maybe a thing or two that they do like). When they finally get to the main topic their discussion takes as it's spring board the debate between Chomsky and Foucault that was held in 1971 and takes as it's focus the question of human nature. If you're interested in watching that debate, you can find it on YouTube right here.

In the TWENTY-FOURTH episode in our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther, Wade and Mike get back at their series on the life of Martin Luther after a few months hiatus. If you're forgetting where they're at (or just picking this up with this episode), the guys have taken only 23 episodes to get all the way up to.....1521 and the Diet of Worms. So, Luther's about to say something about about standing here, which as it turns out, is not all that far into his life as a reformer. We hope you enjoy; and if you're just finding this series on the Life of Luther, you can find the whole series right here.

00:00 - Introduction 05:56 - Free-for-All (Books that you know you should've read) 18:48 - Main Topic (On Elizabeth Gaskell)
On episode ONE HUNDRED AND TWELVE of Let the Bird Fly! Mike and Wade are joined in the studio by Dr. Rebecca Parker Fedewa, who is an English professor at Wisconsin Lutheran College. Dr. Parker Fedewa's dissertation focused on Elizabeth Gaskell, so the guys figured she couldn't say "no" if they asked her on to discuss Gaskell....and they were right (but just barely). And whether you know Gaskell's life and works well, of have never even heard of her, we think you'll dig this conversation. Before getting to the real topic, though, the trio discusses books that they know they should've read (and maybe even pretend like they have), but still haven't. A big thanks to Dr. Parker Fedewa for putting up with the guys and joining us for this episode.

00:00 - Introduction 03:53 - Free-for-All (What we've been up to this summer) 17:42 - Main Topic (On Reading Widely)
On episode ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHT of Let the Bird Fly! Mike is joined for the first time in a long time by Wade (it's not clear how Mike feels about this). The two sit down in the middle of summer 2019 to discuss the importance of reading widely for both the laity and for pastors. Before getting to the main topic, however, they decide to catch the audience up on what they've been up to (and perhaps an excuse as to our lack of new episodes lately). We apologize that episodes have been sporadic this summer. We hope to get back to our regular schedule soon. In the meantime, we hope y'all are having a great summer!

00:00 - Introduction 02:44 - Main Topic (Missiology in the Old Testament)
On episode ONE HUNDRED AND SEVEN of Let the Bird Fly! Mike welcomes back frequent guest Rev. Brian Doebler. Those who have heard Rev. Doebler on previous episodes might remember that he is currently working on a PhD in Missiology at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, Indiana. As this is a topic the Rev. Doebler has thought about more than most, Mike asked him if he'd be willing to do a few episodes on different aspects of Missiology. This episode focuses on Missiology in the Old Testament.
You'll notice there's no Free-for-All again, as well as no Wade. This is not a coincidence. A big thanks to Rev. Doebler for joining us once again (and agreeing to continue to do so).

00:00 - Introduction 03:44 - Free-for-All (Rockin' in Prague) 25:53 - Main Topic (Luther on Music)
On episode ONE HUNDRED AND SIX of Let the Bird Fly! Mike sits down with Dr. Jeremy Zima once again; this time to discuss Martin Luther on Music. Before getting to the main topic, though, Mike asks Dr. Zima to discuss his recent trip to Europe....with his rock band (well, he says a country band, but whatever). That's right, Dr. Zima's not just a professor, he's also an INTERNATIONAL rock star! But don't let this rock star fool you, he's also a music historian (is there anything this guy doesn't do?). It's hard to overestimate the role of music in the Reformation, and in this episdoe Dr. Zima makes that abundantly clear. A big thanks to Dr. Zima for joining us again!

00:00 - Introduction 02:31 - Main Topic (Serving Military Families)
On episode ONE HUNDRED AND FIVE of Let the Bird Fly! Mike sits down with Rev. Paul Horn, who is pastor at Lamb of God Lutheran Churuch in Lafayette, Indiana. Rev. Horn has also served congregations in Kentucky and Georgia and has had a number of opportunities to serve military families. We wanted to have him on to discuss the challenges and benefits of serving this unique group of people. Since Mike's in charge again, you'll be without a Free-for-All (eventually Wade will see what he's up to, though, and get back on an episode to right the ship). Rev. Horn forces Mike into a mini-Free-for-All, however, so not all is lost (thanks, Paul!).

00:00 - Introduction 02:01 - Main Topic (History of Lutheranism in America)
On episode ONE HUNDRED AND FOUR of Let the Bird Fly! Mike welcomes back to the show Dr. Mark Braun. For the listeners that have been around since the beginning, you'll remember that Dr. Braun was one of our first guests (way back on Episode 5). Since he's joined us some eight episode, and a recording in front of a live audience. This time around Mike sits down with Dr. Braun to discuss the history of Lutheranism in America. A big thanks to Dr. Braun for joining us once again. We're confident you'll enjoy the conversation with Mark as much as we did. Books and articles by Dr. Braun:
A Tale Of Two Synods: Events That Led to the Split between Wisconsin and Missouri Time Between the Testaments: Connecting Malachi to Matthew “Those were trying years! Recollections of the ‘split’”

In the TWENTY-THIRD episode in our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther, Wade and Mike discuss the third of Luther's treatises from 1520: On the Freedom of a Christian. The year of 1520 was a very busy year for Luther, where he not only begins a publishing frenzy, but also dives deeper and deeper into what we will look back at as hallmarks of the Reformation.

00:00 - Introduction 09:06 - Free-for-All (Avengers: Endgame and Story Telling) 32:53 - Main Topic (Melanchton v. Flacius with Scott Keith)
On episode ONE HUNDRED AND THREE of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Mike welcome into the studio Dr. Scott Keith who is the Executive Director of 1517 The Legacy Project and Adjunct Professor of Theology at Concordia University, Irvine. Dr. Keith is also a co-host of The Thinking Fellows Podcast, which is a fantastic podcast in the 1517 Podcast Network (which Let the Bird Fly! just happens to be a part of). In this episode Wade and Dr. Keith square off over two influential characters in the early Reformation: Philip Melanchton and Matthias Flacius Illyricus (these just so happen to be the dissertation topics of these distinguished doctors, so it's sure to be a good conversation). Before getting to the battle royale, though, the guys talk Avengers and contemporary story telling in the Free-for-all.
A huge thanks to Dr. Scott Keith for joining us! We had a great time and hope we can do it again.

On episode ONE HUNDRED AND ONE of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Mike sit down in the studio to discuss Philip K. Dick's article How to Build a Universe That Doesn't Fall Apart Two Days Later. Wade admits that they should've probably had Dr. Davis on for this one (he joined the guys previously on Episode 85: The Guys Get Sci-Fi). And although the discussion may have been better with him, we hope you'll enjoy it even without him.

00:00 - Introduction 04:02 - Free-for-All (Place you'd most like to record an episode) 12:09 - Main Topic (This is Water)
On episode ONE HUNDRED (they finally did it) of Let the Bird Fly! the guys sit down (sans Ben despite their best efforts to get him there) to discuss the commencement address This is Water by David Foster Wallace. They've mentioned Wallace on previous episodes and even dedicated an entire episode to his Consider the Lobster. Before diving into the main topic, the guys decided to commemorate their (official) 100th episode by asking the question Where would you most like to record an episode. Wade takes them to Detroit (because Wade), Mike doesn't know the capital of Albania, and Peter is a bit salty that they're not recording in West Allis (don't worry, though, they made it there right after recording). But the real reason they got together was to discuss the talk by David Foster Wallace, and that they do. If you'd like to listen to Wallace's This is Water, you can do so right here; and if you'd like to read it, you can find the text right here. We would like to thank all of our listeners for joining the conversation over the past couple of years. It's amazing that we've made it to 100 (official) episodes and no one is more surprised by that than we are. It's been a fun ride. We hope you've been digging it as much as we have. Thank you for all of your support. Your emails. Your comments. Your reviews. Your sharing. Your well-wishes. Your episode (and Free-for-All) ideas. But most of all, thank you for letting us into your conversations and for joining us in ours. This has been a tremendous blessing for us, and we wouldn't be doing it without you and your support. Some books mentioned in the episode:

00:00 - Introduction 07:40 - Main Topic (Easter 2)
On episode NINETY-NINE (point FIVE) of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Mike sit down to discuss the often forgotten celebration of the second week of Easter. If you're keeping track at home you might wonder why this is not episode 100. Well, give it a listen and you'll hear their lame excuse. You'll also hear Mike and Wade elaborate on a topic that the guys touched on way back in Episode 52 with guest Rev. John Bortulin. It was Holy Week as the guys recorded, so time was tight. This means that they cut out the Free-for-All, which may leave you wondering how you can get them to celebrate Holy Week every week. Happy Easter from Let the Bird Fly!

On episode NINETY-NINE of Let the Bird Fly! Wade hijacks the podcast and forces Mike and Peter to discuss the commodification of people. You might be surprised to find out that despite Wade's attempt to spring a topic on the guys, they managed to still find plenty to talk about. But first they decided to talk more baseball (can you tell they're all excited about their teams this season?) with a far-too-early review of the MLB season so far. Some books mentioned in the episode:
Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace Bioethics: A Primer for Christians by Gilbert Meilaender Seculosity by David Zahl

The guys decided to record a shortish (alright, we can't do short, this is the best we've got) BONUS episodette for Holy Week. This was a last-minute addition, so prepare yourself for some rambling (and if you weren't already prepared, welcome to Let the Bird Fly!, we're thrilled to have you as a new listener). Last year the guys talked Holy Week (and Easter 2) with Rev. John Bortulin, so if you're looking for more on Holy Week, head over to Episode 52. In this bonus episodette the guys discuss some of their thoughts on Holy Week for you. As you make the annual pilgrimage with the Church from the garden to the cross and finally the empty tomb, remember that Christ's suffering, death, and resurrection were, are, and always will be for you. It is this truth that truly gives the world back to us, freeing us to Let the Bird Fly! We hope you and yours have a blessed Holy Week.

This is the NINETEENTH episode in our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther, where Wade and Mike are slowly creeping through Luther's life and many of the significant events at the time of the Reformation.

00:00 - Introduction 04:01 - Free-for-All (Summer and Easter Favorites) 14:43 - Main Topic (On Being the Wife of a Pastor)
On episode NINETY-EIGHT of Let the Bird Fly! Mike and his wife Amanda have the Strong family over to their house for dinner and some podcasting. First the Berg and Strong kids talk about their favorite summer activities and favorite Easter tradition. Next the adults discuss what it means to be a pastor’s wife. Amanda and Abby Strong take the lead on this episode as we eavesdrop on their conversation. Abby’s husband, Aaron, is also there. And so is Mike but it’s not really about them. Rev. Strong is a pastor at Grace Lutheran Church in Milwaukee, and Amanda and Abby both teach at St. Philip’s Lutheran School in Milwaukee. You can check out what they're doing at their respective links.

00:00 - Introduction 11:27 - Main Topic (Law & Gospel: A Lens for Life - Part 3)
On episode NINETY-SEVEN of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Peter sit down to complete their discussion on Wade's presentation entitled Law & Gospel: A Lens for Life. If you missed parts 1 and 2 of our discussion you can find them here and here. When they started this topic Wade thought it was probably just one episode....maybe two...it seems he might have underestimated slightly. It may be that the guys just talk to much, or that Wade's hit on some important (or at least interesting) points with this presentation. Seeing as how they probably could've gone on for another 10 episodes, it might be the latter. (Of course, that doesn't preclude the fact that they clearly talk to much.) We hope you've enjoyed the conversation.

In the EIGHTEENTH in our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther, Wade and Mike sit down to discuss the path to the Leipzig debate. (Well, actually they sat down to discuss the Leipzig debate, but if you've been listening to this series, you already knew that was at least one episode away.) Before the Leipzig debate, however, they need to discuss Philipp Melanchthon's arrival in Wittenberg. The importance of Melanchthon to Luther and the Reformation would be difficult to overstate.

On episode NINETY-SIX of Let the Bird Fly! Wade, Mike and Peter sit down to continue their discussion on Wade's presentation entitled Law & Gospel: A Lens for Life. If you missed part 1 of our discussion you can find it right here. As mentioned in this episode, there will be a part 3, as well.

In this episode, the SEVENTEENTH in our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther, Wade and Mike discuss Luther's summons to Augsburg in 1518 for the imperial diet. Specifically they look at Luther going before Cardinal Thomas Cajetan, who was on his first diplomatic mission. Cardinal Cajetan is not as interested in the theological debate that Luther would really like, which leads to some frustration on the part of Luther and perhaps a rather significant turning point in the history of the Reformation.

00:00 - Introduction 06:57 - Free-for-All (Book Giveaway: Wade's most cringe-worth moments) 22:32 - Main Topic (Law & Gospel: A Lens for Life - Part 1)
On episode NINETY-FIVE of Let the Bird Fly! Wade, Mike and Peter sit down to discuss a presentation Wade has been giving entitled Law & Gospel: A Lens for Life. It's clear that Wade has no trouble talking, but then you throw Peter and Mike into the mix....well, let's just say this is Part 1 of their discussion on this topic (here's to hoping they can keep it to just two parts). Before getting to the Main Topic, though, Mike and Peter revisit the book giveaway promised on Episode 87. To refresh your memory, there were four copies of Valerie Locklaire's book Called to Defend: An Apologetics Handbook for the Middle School Student, that we promised to give away to the listeners would could come up with the most cringe-worth memories of Wade from the podcast so far. Thank you to all who submitted entries. We wish we'd had time to read them all! And thank you to Mike for the late submission as well. We hope you enjoy the episode.

In this episode, the SIXTEENTH in our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther, Wade and Mike discuss the Heidelberg Disputation of 1518, as they continue their walk through some of the important aspects of Luther's life and the time of the Reformation.

00:00 - Introduction 06:12 - Free-for-All (Most enamoring part of the modern world to an ancient Romans) 19:08 - Main Topic (The First Commandment)
On episode NINETY-FOUR of Let the Bird Fly! Mike and Wade sit down with Professor Sheena Finnigan to discuss Rome's transition from a republic. What made it possible for Caesar to become dictator? What contributed to the desire for strong emperors instead? Are there parallels to our own day? What is fair to compare and what isn't? What is the value of history when it comes to such things? We enjoyed having Prof. Finnigan on for this discussion, we think you'll enjoy it too!

This is the FIFTEENTH episode in our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther, where Wade and Mike are walking through some of the important aspects of Luther's life and the time of the Reformation. In this session they discuss the Disputation Against Scholastic Theology, which is actually from before the posting of the 95 Theses (which Mike and Wade covered last time), but only by a month or so.

00:00 - Introduction 02:41 - Free-for-All (Animal Fights - Part Deux!) 14:10 - Main Topic (The First Commandment)
On episode NINETY-THREE of Let the Bird Fly! the guys were invited to record at The Gathering Series, which is put on by The Point of Grace, a Milwaukee area campus ministry group. All four of the guys were able to make it and they were talking to college students, so of course Mike insisted that the Free-for-All be Animal Fights. But even Mike couldn't have anticipated the riveting discussion of the Great Emu War in Australia. Eventually Wade managed to pull Mike away so that we could get to the Main Topic, which was a broad discussion of the First Commandment. Thank you to The Point of Grace for inviting (and putting up with) us, and thank you to the great audience! We hope our listeners enjoy the conversation as well.

In this session we finally make it to 1517 in our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther. It only took 14 sessions to get there, but we reached the so-called "beginning" of the Reformation. But instead of spending the whole time of Luther's 95 Theses (which aren't terribly "Lutheran" anyway), Mike and Wade spend much of the time discussing the practice of selling indulgences at the time, as well as the general state of the Church.

00:00 - Introduction 05:48 - Scripture Narrative (Luke 1:1-4) 13:17 - Free-for-All (LTBF MLB Predictions: 2019) 30:14 - Main Topic (The Four Gospel Accounts)
On episode NINETY-TWO of Let the Bird Fly! Wade, Mike, and Peter are joined once again by Josh Seeger of Wisconsin Lutheran High School. In this episode they finally officially discuss the four Gospel accounts. If you've been listening for a while now, you know that this topic has been brushed up against once or twice in the past. As Peter likes to say for the Free-for-All, though, this time they're going to settle the question once and for all. (Or maybe not, it is Peter that even suggests a Wingin' It series on the four Gospel accounts....these guys sure know how to milk a topic!) Before arriving at the main topic, however, Mr. Seeger joins in the much awaited 2019 MLB Let the Bird Fly! preview! (Some of that previous sentence may have been embellishment.) A big thanks to Mr. Seeger for taking the time to join us again. We definitely enjoyed the conversation, and we hope y'all do as well!

00:00 - Introduction and Free-for-All (A potpourri of questions with Peil girls) 10:34 - Main Topic (Religion ≠ Political Party)
On episode NINETY-ONE of Let the Bird Fly! Mike, while in Utah, had the opportunity to sit down with Barb Munoz to discuss the difficulties and dangers of equating religion and politics. Ms. Munoz may pretend like she cornered Mike for this episode, but don't let her fool you, it didn't take too much arm twisting. And Mike came back from Utah down right giddy about this interview. But before getting to main topic, Mike opens with the daughters of Rev. Tyler Peil and a potpourri of random questions. (You may remember Rev. Peil from our last episode, and if you missed, check it out right here.) A huge thanks to Ms. Munoz for taking the time to sit down and chat with Mike. We hope y'all will enjoy this one as much as Mike did!

00:00 - Introduction 03:04 - Free-for-All (Favorite Season of the Church Year) 27:09 - Main Topic (On Creating a Hymnal)
On episode NINETY of Let the Bird Fly! Mike finds himself in Utah, which means no beer, or maybe it means beer...I guess I'm not sure, regardless he does have the opportunity to sit down with Rev. Jon Micheel and Rev. Tyler Peil (who our long-time listeners may remember from episodes 9 and 10). Both pastors currently serve at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Taylorsville, UT. Both Rev. Micheel and Rev. Peil have been serving on a committee to create a new hymnal for the Wisconsin Synod, which is the reason Mike sits down with them. If you're interested in the project you can find information at the WELS Hymnal Project website. And if you'd like more information Prince of Peace Lutheran, you can find their website right here. A big thank you to Pastors Micheel and Peil for joining us If you'd like more information on the Apologetics course Mike mentioned at the beginning of the Free-for-All, you can find all that information right here.

In this installment of our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther, Mike rejoins Wade to discuss the Reformation as a University phenomenon. As you might expect the conversation starts in Wittenberg and the university there, but continues well beyond, even to our own day. As such this is another episode in the series that strays from the history proper of Luther's life. By now you might have realized that we find the life of Luther to be much more significant than simply who and when Luther was, which is why we're enjoying this series and hope you are as well.

Mike isn't able to join us for the installment of our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther, but Peter steps in to keep Wade from going rouge. He doesn't have much to offer on his own, but you'll find Wade is quite disciplined. (Coincidence? I think not.) In this installment we discuss the Lutherstadt Wittenberg. A place that is not inconsequential to the Reformation, nor Luther's life. Listen into the conversation as the guys ask why this happened, what it meant for the Reformation, and even occasionally what it means for us today.

On episode EIGHTY-EIGHT of Let the Bird Fly! Mike and Wade welcome back Rev. Dr. Mark Braun to discuss teaching introduction to theology, something that all three know a thing or two about. In the Free-for-All the guys discuss what they're teaching this semester, so this episode really ties together (even a blind squirrel, amirite?)

00:00 - Introduction 03:32 - Free-for-All (Wisconsin Winters) 14:51 - Main Topic (Called to Defend)
On episode EIGHTY-SEVEN of Let the Bird Fly! the Mike and Peter welcome Valerie Locklaire to discuss apologetics and her book on the topic: Called to Defend: An Apologetics Handbook for the Middle School Student. Ms. Locklaire is a fellow of the International Academy of Apologetics, Evangelism, and Human Rights in Strasbourg, France, where she also earned the Diploma of Christian Apologetics. Before getting to the main topic, however, the three discuss Wisconsin winters; what to do, how to survive, and shorts in January. But the real reason the guys asked Valerie to join them, was to talk about her interests in apologetics and specifically her book Called to Defend (and don't worry they do make it there). As mentioned in the episode, we will be giving away FOUR signed copies of Ms. Locklaire's book Called to Defend: An Apologetics Handbook for the Middle School Student. For your chance to snag one, head over to our Book Giveaway Page for all the details. A great big thank you to Valerie for joining us!

Our Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther steps back to look at a topic more than a time period in Luther's life; namely, the role of confession. In the last episode the guys discussed Luther's trip to Rome, where he was disappointed with a poor confessor while in Rome. Confession and Absolution remains an integral part of Luther's life throughout, as anyone familiar with his Small Catechism knows. In this episode Wade and Mike dive a bit more into what this means for Luther throughout his life.

00:00 - Introduction 02:25 - Free-for-All (Insiders, Outsiders, and Generational Bridges) 37:51 - Main Topic (The Two Kingdoms)
On episode EIGHTY-SIX of Let the Bird Fly! the guys welcome back Rev. Dr. Mark Braun from Wisconsin Lutheran College. If you haven't heard the past episodes with Dr. Braun, do yourself the favor or rectifying that right here. But first, give this episode in which the guys discuss The Two Kingdoms, a topic that they've brushed up against in more than an episode or two in the past.

00:00 - Introduction 03:16 - Free-for-All (Pick one super power) 16:16 - Main Topic (The Guys Get Sci-Fi)
On episode EIGHTY-FIVE of Let the Bird Fly! the guys welcome Dr. Joel Davis, who teaches chemistry at Wisconsin Lutheran College. But instead of talking science with Dr. Davis (they hope to do that next time he's on), they talk Science Fiction. Dr. Davis' interest in science, however, is not unrelated to his interest in science fiction (as he mentions in the episode); but if you're looking for some cold, hard chemistry, you'll have to wait. In the meantime, we hope you'll enjoy our discussion about science fiction and the space it creates for us to look back at ourselves. If you don't skip over the Free-for-All, though, you'll have to suffer through us discussing our choice super powers....spoiler alert, Wade's first choice is already taken. As there were a number of books referenced in this episode, here's at least a partial list for anyone interested:
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury 1984 by George Orwell Brave New World by Aldous Huxley World Without Mind: The Existential Threat of Big Tech by Franklin Foer The Shallows: What the Internet is Doing to Our Brains by Nicholas Carr

On episode EIGHTY-FOUR of Let the Bird Fly! Mike and Wade welcome Dr. Ned Farley to discuss Anthropology, a topic he knows more than a thing or two about. Before getting the main topic, though, the guys fantasize about what they'd pick as their personal intro songs...you know if they did something worthy of having their own intro songs. We're very thankful to Dr. Farley for taking the time to sit down with us and we're sure you'll enjoy the great conversation. Happy New Year from all of us at Let the Bird Fly!

The Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther continues with Luther’s transition from law student to Augustinian Friar. In many ways the transition was fairly simple: his daily schedule was not too different, he was still an academic, and he only moved across town. Yet the transition could not have been more life-altering. Listen into the conversation as the guys ask why this happened and what it meant for the Reformation.

00:00 - Introduction 02:52 - Scripture Narrative (Luke 2:1-15) 16:34 - Free-for-All (Favorite Christmas Custom) 30:33 - Main Topic (On Christmas with Athanasius, Lewis, and Luther)
On episode EIGHTY-THREE of Let the Bird Fly! Mike and Wade welcome back Dr. Paul Lehninger and Rev. Greg Lyon to discuss Christmas. As a launching point for the discussion the guys use Athanasius's On the Incarnation, along with C.S. Lewis's introduction to Athanasius's classic treatise. They also read Luther's 1530 Sermon on Christmas Day (except Mike, who does very little he's asked to do and yet far more than he needs to), which they get to about half way through the main topic. Before getting to that discussion, though, they have a real Scripture Narrative (thanks for checking Wade's "bible," Mike), as well as a Free-for-All on their Favorite Christmas Customs. We hope enjoy and that you and yours have a very merry Christmas!

00:00 - Introduction 07:45 - Free-for-All (Favorite food when traveling) 21:14 - Main Topic (The Importance of Travel)
On episode EIGHTY-TWO of Let the Bird Fly! the guys welcome onto the show Dr. Martin Moldenhauer, who teaches on the English faculty at Wisconsin Lutheran College. But instead of talking Shakespeare, American literature, or the metamorphic process or writing (all topics Dr. Moldenhauer would be fantastic on as well), they sit down to talk about another personal and professional interest of Dr. Moldenhauer's: the importance of travel. After indulging in some discussion of their own Wanderlust, they ponder the benefits of experiencing different cultures. In the end, they take as their theme the famous Mark Twain quote: “Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.” We hope you are able to sit back and enjoy the discussion.

The guys continue their Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther by exploring his early education. Luther was afforded a good education that prepared him for university. It was rough and, yes, he did get beat a few times, but he emerged fully prepared to take on the rigors of a college education. Of course, it wasn’t just the curriculum that shaped him. The camaraderie with his classmates, the faithfulness of his instructors, and the encouragement of those who saw in him something special shaped the young Luther.
Here's a brief bibliography on the Life of Martin Luther:
Martin Luther: A Life by James Nestingen Luther the Reformer: The Story of the Man and His Career by James Kittelson A Short Life of Martin Luther by Thomas Kaufmann Martin Luther: Renegade and Prophet by Lyndal Roper Luther: Visionary Reformer by Scott Hendrix Here I Stand: The Life of Martin Luther by Roland Bainton Luther: Man between God and the Devil by Heiko Oberman Brand Luther by Andrew Pettegree

Wade and Mike continue their Wingin' It series on the life of Martin Luther with a look at his childhood. They explore the question “What was it like to be a kid from Mansfeld”. Wade makes the case that Luther, the Mansfeld kid, was a true Detroiter at heart. Listen in as they paint a picture of Luther’s upbringing in a religious, strict, but loving home in the mining town of Mansfeld in which the poor peasant and proto-capitalist walk down the same streets and sit next to each other in the same pews.

This Wingin' It is the first in a new series Wade and Mike are doing on the life of Martin Luther. Before getting into Luther’s family, birth, and childhood (that’s the next episode), they discuss why we should take an historical look at Luther. The great reformer didn’t just impact the church, but the whole world, perhaps in ways we don’t always realize. The guys will each reread some Luther biographies for each episode to gain a diverse perspective on Wittenberg’s most famous professor, fully aware that historical books often tell us as much about the author and his or her time as the subject itself. But this will be helpful, too, as they bring the historical lessons of Luther to our contemporary situation.
So with that in mind, here's a bit of a starting bibliography on the Life of Martin Luther:
Martin Luther: A Life by James Nestingen
Luther the Reformer: The Story of the Man and His Career by James Kittelson
A Short Life of Martin Luther by Thomas Kaufmann
Martin Luther: Renegade and Prophet by Lyndal Roper
Luther: Visionary Reformer by Scott Hendrix
Here I Stand: The Life of Martin Luther by Roland Bainton
Luther: Man between God and the Devil by Heiko Oberman
Brand Luther by Andrew Pettegree

00:00 - Introduction 07:18 - Scripture Narrative (We apologize for Wade) 08:42 - Free-for-All (Life without Books or Computers?) 21:09 - Main Topic (Law and Gospel - Another Pass)
On episode EIGHTY-ONE of Let the Bird Fly! the guys welcome Rev. Kent Schaaf, who is currently serving at Mount Olive Lutheran Church in Milwaukee, WI, to discuss those two chief teachings of Scripture: Law and Gospel. If you're a longtime listener you'll remember we discuss Law and Gospel way back on Episode 11, and of course it's a topic that we've touched on many times through the past year and a half. We are grateful to Rev. Schaaf for joining us to continue the discussion. Wade and Mike frame the conversation around August Piepers writing on the Proper Distinction Between Law and Gospel, which can be found in the second volume of The Wauwatosa Theology. Before getting to the Main Topic, Wade realizes that he's not Mormon, and the guys discuss life without either books or computers (spoiler: Peter's the only sane one in the room). A great big Thank You! , once again, to Pastor Schaaf for taking some time to join us. Let the Bird Fly! is supported by the 1517 Podcast Network, which is part of 1517.org.

This is the twelfth and final Wingin' It in our series on Church History, in which Wade and Mike are using Mark A. Noll's book Turning Points: Decisive Moments in the History of Christianity as the spring-board for their discussion. Their intention has been to use his structure as a rough guide for their conversations; so if you're looking for a book study guide, you'll need to keep looking. But it turned out to be a good excuse for Wade and Mike to record some conversations about a number of topics they enjoy; so if you're looking for something like that, you're in the right place.
This episode serves as a rounding out of the series (while leaving some loose ends for future episodes or Wingin' It series). If you haven't listened to the rest of the series, you can find them all right here. But even if you haven't, you shouldn't have any trouble following along with the conversation (well, no more trouble than is normal when listening to the guys verbal meanderings masquerading as a podcast). If you've enjoyed this series, don't forget to share!

00:00 - Introduction 05:44 - Free-for-All (Christmas wishes and regrets) 21:19 - Main Topic (Advent Revisited)
On episode EIGHTY of Let the Bird Fly! Mike and Wade join forces with Pastors Brian Doebler and John Bortulin to discuss the season of Advent. You may be thinking "Hey, didn't you already do an episode on the season of Advent," and you'd be right. But we like the season so much, we're doing it again...so deal with it. This time around, the guys talk about the history of the season, what its focus is, preaching through it, and all sorts of other stuff associated with Christ coming to us. The Berg girls make an appearance in the Free-for-All to discuss what they're asking for Christmas and some of their favorite presents from years past. Wade adds a lesson learned from his own childhood as well (we're glad he got his presents back, but can understand his parents getting tired of his antics—we know the feeling!). Thanks again to Brian and John for joining us. We hope you have a blessed Advent! Let the Bird Fly! is supported by the 1517 Podcast Network, which is part of 1517.org.

This episode departs a bit from Noll's outline, taking a few of the topics after the tenth chapter of Noll's book, and combining them into a discussion of the Enlightenment. We hope you'll enjoy this Wingin' It series. (And if you do, don't forget to share!)

In this Bird's Eye View, Wade, Mike, Ben, and Dr. Mark Braun talk at Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary about the podcast.

On episode SEVENTY-NINE of Let the Bird Fly! Mike and Wade hang in Wade’s backyard (this was record back when it was warm in Milwaukee still—too long ago!) to discuss an essay by J.P. Koehler, “Legalism Among Us.” Before getting to the discussion of the essay, Wade and Mike try to keep some of the Johnston kids focused for a free-for-all discussion about going back to school (they are now well into the grind, but it was fresh then).

On episode SEVENTY-EIGHT of Let the Bird Fly! the guys sit down with seminarians Adam Lambrecht, Chris Pflughoeft, and Tony Pflughoeft to discuss life as a seminarian. Wade was invited to speak to a student group at Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary and since Ben and Mike tagged along they decided to record an episode. (We hope to post Wade's talk as a Bird's Eye View soon, so keep an eye out for that.) Before getting to the discussion of what it means to be a seminarian, the guys force their guests to subject themselves to a free-for-all discussion of favorite "ethnic food" (whatever that's supposed to mean). After getting past food the guys are able to have a great conversation with their guest about life as a seminarian.

On episode SEVENTY-SIX of Let the Bird Fly! the guys are thrilled to be joined by Rev. Dr. John Pless of Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, IN, as well as by returning guest Rev. Bror Erickson. But they're not only joined by these two fantastic guests, they are also joined by a live audience, as this episode was recorded at the 2018 Here We Still Stand conference, which was held in October of 2018. Recording in front of a live audience changes things a bit, but perhaps the biggest challenge for Wade was being told he had to keep it to 40 minutes! So with guests of this caliber and a limited time, they cut right to the chase, skipping the Scripture Narrative and the Free-for-All. Instead the guys get right to the business of discussing Hermann Sasse, a theologian that both Dr. Pless and Rev. Erickson have a wealth of knowledge about.
As always, we're grateful to the 1517 podcasting network, but we are especially thankful for giving us the opportunity to record this episode at the Here We Still Stand conference. Speaking of the 1517 Podcast Network, they have a newly released series entitled The Soul of Christianity, that you should check out. It's a 12 part series on the Apostle's Creed, which is hosted by Debi Winrich and Dan van Voorhis. And while you're at it, make sure to check out all the great podcast in the 1517 Podcast Network.

00:00 - Introduction 05:23 - Free-for-All (Pitcher hits or designated hitter) 16:26 - Main Topic (Imago Dei)
On episode SEVENTY-FIVE of Let the Bird Fly! the guys sit down with Rev. Adam Morton to discuss Imago Dei (or specifically what it means to be created in the image of God). The guys recorded this episode will at the Here We Still Stand 2018 conference, which was held in October of 2018. Rev. Morton was gracious enough to sit down with the guys not once, but twice (you'll see what we mean a little over 30 minutes into the episode). Rev. Morton is currently working on his doctorate at the University of Nottingham. As is our want, however, we make you suffer through a Free-for-All before getting to the Main Topic. In this episode we bring back a favorite from way back on Episode 3: pitcher hits or designated hitter. After roundly beating Wade, however, we move on to a wonderful conversation with Rev. Morton. We think you're going to dig this one (we sure did)! The 1517 Podcast Network has a new series called The Soul of Christianity, that you should check out.

00:00 - Introduction 03:10 - Free-for-All (Bees and Wasps) 27:11 - Main Topic (First or Second Article Christian)
On episode SEVENTY-FOUR of Let the Bird Fly! the guys are all back together for the first time in a long time. They don't waste anytime, either, getting right to those pressing questions in the Free-for-All. This time the topic de jour is sometime near and dear to Ben (which are the most hashtag-able topics we cover going all the way back to #notMyTimeZone); namely, bees. Yes, that's right, the guys spend more than 20 minutes talking about bees, a topic on which they are determined to demonstrate their complete lack of knowledge, save Ben, of course, who just has to put up with the others for the duration. The Free-for-All bleeds over into the beginning of the Main Topic (it's just hard to stop discussing dictatorial regimes, especially when they enact policies as fascinating as the Four Pests Campaign, but eventually they pull themselves away to discuss whether one should be a "first article" or a "second article" Christian. Spoiler alert: they all agree you should be a full three article Christian. Nonetheless, the guys use this distinction as a way to highlight some of the areas that theology often becomes skewed. It turns out that the doctrine of the Trinity is not simply a logical difficulty, but one that requires our careful attention. We hope that you are able to suffer through the banter of our Free-for-All (or that you just skip it) and find something worth considering in our Main Topic.

00:00 - Introduction 04:30 - Free-for-All (Music Guilty Pleasures) 26:13 - Main Topic (Philosophies of Music)
On episode SEVENTY-THREE of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Mike welcome back Dr. Jeremy Zima, who was a guest on Episode 36, The Guys Get Music. Dr. Zima is back again to discuss music, but this time specifically philosophies of music (which means Wade and Mike left it pretty much wide open for him). Before getting to the Main Topic, however, the guys get off their chests some of their own music guilty pleasures in the Free-for-All. We hope you enjoy!

00:00 - Introduction 05:42 - Scripture Narrative (Deuteronomy 18:15-22) 07:54 - Free-for-All (Wade's Choice...this could get weird) 25:24 - Main Topic (How Christians Should Regard Moses)
On episode SEVENTY-TWO of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Mike meet up once again in Wade's back yard, this time to discuss Martin Luther's sermon How Christians Should Regard Moses. Before getting to Moses, though, Wade decides to highjack the Free-for-All, not telling anyone what the questions will be. Fortunately (although perhaps not fortunately for them) Wade's children (two of which join us for the Free-for-All) are unfazed by his questions at this point.

00:00 - Introduction 04:12 - Scripture Narrative (Matthew 28:16-20) 12:31 - Free-for-All (Going back to school) 28:33 - Main Topic (Missiology)
On episode SEVENTY-ONE of Let the Bird Fly! Mike and Wade welcome back a guest that seems to be hanging around quite a bit lately, Rev. Brian Doebler to discuss a topic that he knows more than a thing or two about; namely, Missiology. Fittingly the Scripture Narrative takes us to the so-called Great Commission of Matthew 28, before the three discuss returning to school as teachers/professors.

On episode SIXTY-NINE of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Mike are joined by returning guest Rev. John Bortulin (in fact Pastor Bortulin was our first guest way back on episode 3).

Since all three are forty years old and pastors they decide to do a bit of a retrospective on their decade plus time as pastors. We are grateful to Rev. Bortulin for joining us again.

On episode SIXTY-SEVEN of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Peter sit down in Wade's backyard to discuss death. Specifically they decide to talk about whether or not we ought to think about death.

This is the second Wingin' It in our series on Church History, in which Wade and Mike are using Mark A. Noll's book Turning Points: Decisive Moments in the History of Christianity as the spring-board for their discussion. Their intention is to use his structure as a rough guide for their conversations; so if you're looking for a book study guide, you'll need to keep looking.
This episode picks up on the second chapter of Noll's book, which he entitles Realities of Empire: The Council of Nicaea (325). The discussion of the Council of Nicaea bleeds over a bit into the next Wingin' It, so you'll have to wait until that comes out for the rest. We hope you'll enjoy this Wingin' It series.

00:00 - Introduction 03:03 - Free-for-All (World Cup) 10:01 - Main Topic (On Reading "Unsafe" Authors - Part 1)
On episode SIXTY-FIVE of Let the Bird Fly! Wade was out-of-town, so the guys took over his office and invited back Rev. Dr. Mark Paustian. Dr. Paustian joined us back on Episode 60 to discuss communication, and we had such a great time we decided to get him back on, this time to discuss reading books and authors who have been deemed "unsafe." Our discussion centers around "theologically unsafe" authors, but we also discuss this concern in a slightly broader context as well. This is a topic that the guys had done way back on Episode 4, which is entitled Stepping outside the Fortress. So if you're a new listener (or if you just skipped that episode), you may want to go back and give that early episode a listen as well (plus you'll get the added bonus of getting to hear us stumble through one of our early episodes, which is always entertaining). As it turns out there was quite a bit to talk about with Dr. Paustian, so we had to split it into two episodes. So if you enjoy this one, make sure to check out Episode 66 as well.
Books mentioned in this episode:
Shall We Sin? Responding to the Antinomian Question in Lutheran Theology by Jeffery K. Mann Practice in Christianity by Søren Kierkegaard

This Wingin' It is the first is a series that Wade and Mike plan to record on Church History. Much like they did with the Wingin' It series on the Divine Service, the hope is that by taking a big topic in smaller parts they'll be able to get into a bit more detail than they would be able to do in a single episode. That said, these are still Wingin' It episodes, so they are far from scripted, (you've been forewarned).
They will be using Mark A. Noll's book Turning Points: Decisive Moments in the History of Christianity as the spring-board for their discussion. Rather than provide an overview of Noll's book, however, their intention is to use his structure as a rough guide for their conversations. With that in mind, this episode begins with the topic of Noll's first chapter: The Fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD. We hope you'll enjoy this new Wingin' It series. (And if you do, don't forget to share!)

00:00 - Introduction 06:12 - Scripture Narrative (Acts 26) 09:55 - Free-for-All (Favorite Beer) 17:23 - Main Topic (Apologetics)
On episode SIXTY-FOUR of Let the Bird Fly! the guys once again sit down in Wade's backyard this time to discuss apologetics. Apologetics is something of a reoccurring theme for the guys (we blame Mike), in fact back before Mike joined the elite ranks of co-hosts on the podcast, he was on as a guest to discuss this very topic. If you missed that episode, you can find it back at Episode 27: No Apologies, Apologetics. This episode's discussion is less organized (I know that may be hard to believe), but the guys just wanted to take some time to discuss something explicitly that they seem to keep bumping up against on different episodes. So we hope you'll enjoy (or at least tolerate) another discussion on apologetics.

00:00 - Introduction 03:10 - Scripture Narrative (Galatians 2:17-21) 05:48 - Free-for-All (Name Peter's Son) 17:23 - Main Topic (Let the Bird Fly!)
On episode SIXTY-THREE of Let the Bird Fly! the guys sit down in Wade's backyard to discuss the podcast. Yep, that's right another self-indulgent episode, but we hope you'll tolerate it. We've picked up a number of new listeners since joining the 1517 Podcast Network, so we thought this might be a good time to discuss what we hope to be doing with this podcast. In many ways this is a reboot of Episode 1, but with better audio quality and much less nervous hosts.

00:00 - Introduction 37:43 - Main Topic (Every Sunday Communion - Part 2)
On episode SIXTY-TWO of Let the Bird Fly! the guys continue their discussion about every Sunday Communion with Pastor Brian Doebler. If you haven't listened to the first part of the discussion, you may want to do so before listening to this one, as this is the second half of that conversation. You can find the first part on episode 61. Since we didn't have a clean ending from the last episode, this one begins with a bit of an overlap from the previous episode. And we don't have a Scripture Narrative or Free-for-All, so this one is just one big, long Main Topic. Once again we'd like to thank Pastor Doebler for joining us for this lengthy conversation. We hope you'll enjoy it.

On episode SIXTY-ONE of Let the Bird Fly! the guys sit down in Wade's backyard to discuss the practice of celebrating the Lord's Supper every Sunday. They are joined by Rev. Brian Doebler (who you may remember from episode 53 and episode 56), who has a fair amount of experience implementing the practice of every Sunday Communion. The conversation goes more than a bit long, so it has been made into two episodes. We apologize for the abrupt ending to this episode, but you can pickup the rest of the conversation on episode 62.

00:00 - Introduction 05:18 - Scripture Narrative (John 1:1-2) 09:04 - Free-for-All (Grad School Experiences) 29:09 - Main Topic (Communicating with Dr. Paustian)
On episode SIXTY of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Mike welcome Rev. Dr. Mark Paustian from Martin Luther College in (wonderful) New Ulm, MN to discuss communications, theology, apologetics, preaching, and even story-telling. Before getting to the main topic, Mike discusses the prologue to the Gospel according to St. John, which ends with Mike having to cut-off Wade. In the free-for-all all three of the guys discuss their experiences in graduate school, and this segment also end with Mike cutting-off Wade (this almost seems to be a pattern, I wonder why?). In the main topic Dr. Paustian discusses his area of expertise--communications. This leads to a conversation that ranges from St. Augustine and C.S. Lewis, to preaching and apologetics, and even a discussion about the importance of story-telling.

00:00 - Introduction 02:22 - Free-for-All (Summer Plans) 14:26 - Main Topic (God Is Not One)
On episode FIFTY-NINE of Let the Bird Fly! we welcome back Rev. Dr. Mark Braun, this time to talk about why all religions are not the same. The guys use Stephen Prothero's book God Is Not One: The Eight Rival Religions that Run the World a springboard for their conversation. But before discussing world religions, they briefly discuss their plans for the summer (evidently recording during finals week makes college professor want to talk about summer for some reason). If you're interested in any of Prothero's books mention in the episode, here are some links:

00:00 - Introduction 05:04 - Free-for-All (Animal Fights) 21:51 - Main Topic (Preaching as a Means of Grace)
On episode FIFTY-EIGHT of Let the Bird Fly! all four of the guys sit down to discuss Preaching as a Means of Grace. In the May 2018 issue of Logia: A Journal of Lutheran Theology, Wade published an article on this topic, which serves as the basis for their discussion. So if the discussion piques your interest, make sure to get your hands on a copy of that issue of Logia (or better yet, subscribe). Before getting to their main topic, however, the guys get the important stuff out of the way by discussing animal fights, how God's sense of humor is seen in the hippo, and whether or not a gorilla could make a shiv from a pine tree. (important. stuff.)

00:00 - Introduction 01:51 - Free-for-All (Going to New York City) 12:50 - Main Topic (Names of Jesus)
On episode FIFTY-SEVEN of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Mike sit down for a somewhat off-the-cuff episode. Wade and Mike were recently in New York, which gave them the idea to discuss New York City (because nothing sounds like a better idea than two guys who have been to New York a total of three times talking about NYC). After providing a comprehensive review of New York City, Mike and Wade turn their attention to a discussion of the names of Jesus.

In this Bird's Eye View episode we bring you a talk that Mike gave in March 2018 at Good News Lutheran Church in Mount Horeb, WI. The talk was given shortly before Easter and is entitled Everybody Needs a Reason for Easter. As you might have guessed, Mike talks apologetics in this lecture. We hope you enjoy the talk! Also, we would like to thank Good News Lutheran Church for asking Mike to come and speak, as well as for allowing him to record his talk so that we could share it with our listeners. As mentioned in Episode 56, Let the Bird Fly! has joined the 1517 Podcast Network. If you haven't done so yet, make sure to check out the other podcast in the network!

00:00 - Introduction 09:46 - Scripture Narrative (Romans 10:13-17) 11:14 - Free-for-All (Best and Worst Ad Campaigns) 24:22 - Main Topic (The Divine Call)
On episode FIFTY-SIX of Let the Bird Fly! the guys have a full house, with all four of them present, plus three guests. Fortunately, Wade invented them over to Rev. John Bortulin’s house (one of their guests) to record. Before getting going on this episode, Wade discusses the exciting news that Let the Bird Fly! has joined the 1517 Podcast Network. This has been announced on Facebook previously, but this is the first time on the podcast. If you’re not familiar with 1517., head on over to their website and check them out. And while you’re there, make sure to take a look at the other 7 podcasts in their network; you’re sure to find something you’ll enjoy! A huge thank you to the 1517 Podcast Network for bringing us on-board and for the support they’ve already given us. We’re excited to be able to bring our conversation to an even broader audience. So, after a somewhat protracted introduction, Mike reads a few verses from Romans 10, which serve as a bit of a primer for our Main Topic: The Divine Call. Since we had 5 pastors (and two guys who flunked out of “pastor school”), we thought it would be good to discuss the calling process and how each of these pastors have managed it. We are thankful to Pastor Ben Zak (currently serving at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Milwaukee), Pastor Brian Doebler (currently teaching at Wisconsin Lutheran High School in Milwaukee), and Pastor John Bortulin (current serving at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Mukwonago, WI) for joining us on this episode. And an extra thanks to Rev. Bortulin for opening his home to us to record, we won't forget it (what time next week, John?).

In March of 2018 Mike was invited to speak at Good News Lutheran Church in Mount Horeb, WI. We will be releasing that talk soon as a Bird's Eye View episode, but while he was there Mike was able to bamboozle Pastors Jonathan Bauer and John Stelter into recording this Wingin' It on Apologetics in the Local Parish. Rev. Bauer is the pastor at Good News Lutheran Church, where Mike's talk was held, and Rev. Stelter is the pastor at St. John's Lutheran Church in Princeton, WI. We are grateful to both of our guests for sitting down with Mike for the Wingin' It. We think you'll enjoy the conversation. At the beginning of the episode Pastor Stelter mentioned the International Academy of Apologetics, Evangelism & Human Rights, which Mike has discussed in the past. If you're not familiar with their work, do yourself the favor to become familiar.

00:00 - Introduction 04:05 - Free-for-All (Something no one agrees with you on, but you know you're right about.) 14:34 - Main Topic (Urban Education with Ben Clemons)
On episode FIFTY-FIVE of Let the Bird Fly! the guys are pleased to welcome Prof. Benjamin Clemons into the studio to discuss urban educational ministry, something the Prof. Clemons has been thinking about and doing for many years. Prof. Clemons is currently a professor of Urban Ministry at Martin Luther College, in New Ulm, MN (yes, the very New Ulm that is home to this striking tribute to German heritage). Before taking up his current post as a professor, however, he served as a principal and teacher at schools in Milwaukee, WI, as well teaching for a year in China. Wade starts us off with something resembling a brief Scripture Narrative during the introduction, before the guys mostly flop in this episode’s Free-for-All. But their guest comes through and saves them in the main topic where they mostly avoid talking about Jolly Ranchers® (the wine candy)and instead allow Prof. Clemons to discuss how he got to where he is, a bit about his educational philosophy, and a whole lot about teaching across cultures. We think you’ll enjoy the conversation as much as we did. And a huge thanks to Prof. Clemons for joining us on this episode. And as always, if you are enjoying the show, please subscribe, rate, and review us on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play, or TuneIn Radio. You can also like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter.

This Wingin' It is the fifteenth and final part in our series on the Divine Service. Mike and Wade get together one last time to discuss the Nunc dimittis and the Benediction.

You can email us at podcast@LetTheBirdFly.com, or find us on Facebook right here. And as a reminder, this is the final part in the series promised by Mike on Episode 33, which will cover various parts of the Western Rite.

00:00 - Introduction 02:00 - Free-for-All (What one language do you wish you knew?) 10:22 - Main Topic (The Epistle to the Galatians)
On episode FIFTY-FOUR of Let the Bird Fly! Wade, Mike, and Peter sit down to discuss Paul’s epistle to the faithful in Galatia. Since the main topic is something of an extended Scripture Narrative, the guys decide to skip that in the Scripture Narrative on this episode. Of course, they’d never skip the Free-for-All….who else is going to wrestle with all of these pressing questions? After some stimulating conversation about just how American they all are when it comes to languages, they move on to discuss Paul’s Epistle to the Galatians.

We're getting to the end of this series, and you may be wondering how Mike and Wade are going to spend 40 minutes talking about distributing the Lord's Supper....but that probably means you haven't heard Mike and Wade talk before. If you have heard them, though, you might be wondering how they kept it to around 40 minutes. Either way, we hope you enjoy! And as a reminder, this is the thirteenth part in the series promised by Mike on Episode 33, which will cover various parts of the Western Rite. If you missed our previous episodettes on the Divine Service, you can catch up right here. And if you haven't listened to our full episode on worship, you can find that right here. Thanks for listening!

On episode FIFTY-THREE of Let the Bird Fly! Mike and Wade welcome into the studio two theology teachers to discuss teaching theology to high schoolers. Mr. Josh Seeger and Rev. Brian Doebler both teach theology at Wisconsin Lutheran High School in Milwaukee, WI, and they join the guys to discuss what it’s like to teach high school students theology, as well as discuss their favorite sports uniforms.

In this Wingin' It, the thirteenth part in our series on the Divine Service, Mike and Wade discuss the Lord's Prayer, the Pax Domini, and the Agnus Dei. The talk the placement of these elements, the difficulty of praying various petitions of the Lord's Prayer, and even hypothetical paintings of the angel of death as a chubby cherub. Alright, they discuss more than just that, but you'll have to listen to find out what they say!

00:00 - Introduction 03:16 - Scripture Narrative (Matthew 21:1-11) 22:39 - Free-for-All (When Medical Professionals Fail You) 36:03 - Main Topic (Holy Week...(and Easter 2))
On episode FIFTY-TWO of Let the Bird Fly! Rev. John Bortulin joins the guys to discuss Holy Week...and Easter 2. Rev. Bortulin is an associate pastor at St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church in Mukwonago, WI, and was the first (adult) guest on Let the Bird Fly! That’s right, Pastor Bortulin was the first person to agree to be on this very podcast, way back on Episode 3 (which, as it turns out, was also discussing Holy Week). Rev. Bortulin was also a guest on Episode 16, so if you enjoy what you hear here, go check those two episodes out! We are thrilled to have Rev. Bortulin back for this episode to discuss Holy Week...and Easter 2. Our Scripture Narrative kicks off our Holy Week discussion with Palm Sunday, and then we take a quick excursion into the world of modern medicine. Wade mentions the Wingin’ It series that Mike has been spearheading on the Divine Service. You can find that entire series here, and Wade specifically mentions the episode on The Sanctus, which you can find here. Eventually we do work our way through a discussion of this holiest of weeks in Christendom. We hope that you enjoy the conversation, and if you do, please let us know at podcast@LetTheBirdFly.com or on our Facebook page.

This is the twelfth part in our Wingin' It series on the Divine Service, and Mike and Wade have finally reached the Words of Institution! We're getting close to wrapping up this series, but just as with the Divine Service, sometimes the best parts are saved until last.

00:00 - Introduction 02:41 - Scripture Narrative (Reading from With My Own Eyes) 06:13 - Free-for-All (Favorite Childhood Toys) 22:11 - Main Topic (With My Own Eyes)
On episode FIFTY-ONE of Let the Bird Fly! Rev. Bror Erickson joins the guys once again via Skype to discuss the Swedish Bishop Bo Giertz. On the episode 50 Pastor Erickson joined us to discuss what led him to begin translating some of Bo Giertz’s works. This time he joins us to talk about one of those works in particular. Once again instead of the normal Scripture Narrative, Wade reads a selection from one of Rev. Erickson’s translations. This time it is from With My Own Eyes, which also serves as the main topic for this episode. They also find a way to talk about favorite childhood toys, which is sort of a metaphor for what the Free-for-All is anyway. If you are familiar with Bo Giertz, it is most likely through The Hammer of God. What you may not know is that Bo Giertz was a rather prolific author, but very little has been translated into English. Thanks to our guest, however, that has been changing. If you’d like more from Bror, you can check out his posts at 1517. The Legacy Project, as well as his personal blog and if you find yourself in Farmington, NM, you can find him pastoring at Zion Lutheran Church. Books translated or edited by Bror:

In this, the eleventh part in our Wingin' It series on the Divine Service, Mike and Wade are joined in the studio by Rev. Dr. Paul Lehninger to discuss the much ballyhooed showdown over the Eucharistic Prayer. The guys have some slight technical difficulties toward the end of the episode, but nothing that causes too much of a problem. A big thanks to Dr. Lehninger for joining us on this Wingin' It. We hope to have him back again for a full episode on one of his areas of expertise.

00:00 - Introduction 01:58 - Scripture Narrative (Reading from Then Fell the Lord’s Fire) 09:59 - Free-for-All (Favorite Hobbies/Pastimes) 26:16 - Main Topic (Bo Giertz, In Translation)
On episode FIFTY of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Peter welcome Rev. Bror Erickson via Skype to discuss the Swedish Bishop Bo Giertz. Pastor Erickson is the pastor at Zion Lutheran Church in Farmington, NM and has been translating works of Bo Giertz (as well as others) for a number of years and sat down with the guys to discuss the famous Swedish Bishop, in what we hope is a bit of a primer for future episodes where Rev. Erickson will discuss specific works of Giertz’s that he has translated. Instead of the normal Scripture Narrative, Wade reads an ordination sermon of Giertz’s that is translated by Rev. Erickson in Then Fell the Lord’s Fire. In the Free-for-All we find out that Wade and Peter are far more boring than Bror (which may surprise exactly zero regular listeners), but Wade does hatch a plan to take over Mike’s garage, so it wasn’t a total loss for the guys. If you are familiar with Bo Giertz, it is most likely through The Hammer of God. What you may not know is that Bo Giertz was a rather prolific author, but very little has been translated into English. Thanks to our guest, however, that has been changing. We hope to have Rev. Erickson on again to discuss some of the specific works that he’s translated, but in this episode we ask Rev. Erickson to introduce us a bit to Bo Giertz, and himself. (And if you’re looking for a glimpse at Bror’s kokopelli that Wade mentions during the episode, you can sneak a peek on the video he has on his Amazon author page.) If you’d like more from Bror, check out his posts at 1517. The Legacy Project, as well as his personal blog. Books translated or edited by Bror:

This is the tenth part in our Wingin' It on the Divine Service. Mike and Wade are back to discuss the Prefaces and the Sanctus. (Stay tuned for what they promise will be a battle royale over the Eucharistic Prayer next time.) Mike clarifies that they do know the proper distinction between the Propers and the Ordinaries (despite having switched them around in a previous episode). And that distinction proves to be important when discussing the Prefaces. As the second part of the Divine Service begins, we find a new address (in the Prefaces) and a renewed confession of the Triune God (in the Sanctus). Give it a listen, share with a friend, and let us know what you think! And as a reminder, this is the tenth part in the series promised by Mike on Episode 33, which will cover various parts of the Western Rite.

00:00 - Introduction 02:06 - Scripture Narrative (Ecclesiastes 3) 15:04 - Free-for-All (What would you do if you weren't a pastor/professor?) 35:34 - Main Topic (On Happiness)
On episode FORTY-NINE of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Mike find themselves abandoned by Ben and Peter and somehow decide to talk about happiness. (I’m sure that’s just a coincidence.) After a discussion of Ecclesiastes 3, considering careers as political speech writers and as garbagemen, Mike and Wade find their way to happiness...or at least they talk about it for a bit. Their conversation ranges from Epictetus’ The Enchiridion, to the Bill of Rights and the Declaration of Independence, touches on Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics, and of course Wade can’t be happy without bringing up the Beastie Boys’ Paul's Boutique. Some of the books mentioned in this episode:
Oliver Burkeman’s The Antidote: Happiness for People who Can't Stand Positive Thinking Epictetus’ The Enchiridion Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics And here’s a link to the issue of Logia in which Mike’s article appeared

In this Wingin' It session, the ninth part of our series on the Divine Service, Mike and Wade discuss the Offering and the Prayer of the Church. Mike suggests that it may not be the most exciting episode in this series, but if you've been enjoying the series, we think you'll still find it enjoyable all the same. And if you are enjoying it, make sure to share it with friends and family!

00:00 - Introduction 02:21 - Scripture Narrative (1 Timothy 3:1-7) 15:33 - Free-for-All (Best decade for a Sport) 29:44 - Main Topic (The Season of Lent)
On episode FORTY-EIGHT of Let the Bird Fly! all four of the guys are back in the studio and joined by Professor Earle Treptow from Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary in Mequon, WI. Rev. Treptow was gracious enough to join us to talk about being a district president (or Bishop, depending on the nomenclature of your church body). Before joining the seminary faculty, Rev. Treptow served as the president of the Nebraska District of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod. Before getting to the main topic, however, Wade walks us through what Paul has to say in 1 Timothy 3 about being an overseer in the church and the guys discuss the best decades for some of their favorite sports (or sporting events, I suppose, if you’re willing to allow Peter his first choice...which Ben is not). But as always seems to eventually happen, they finally make it to the main topic, where Prof. Treptow provides some wonderful insight into a role in the church that might often go overlooked. We are extremely grateful to Prof. Treptow for joining us on this episode. We hope to coax him back in the future to discuss some of the areas he teaches at the seminary.

00:00 - Introduction 02:29 - Free-for-All (Rev. Billy Graham) 21:05 - Main Topic (The Book of Judges)
On episode FORTY-SEVEN of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Mike are joined by Dr. Mark Braun, who kindly agreed to join us again since our previously recorded episode for this week didn't work out. The guys ask Dr. Braun to talk about the book of Judges, a book he knows well, having written over 1,000 pages about it for an upcoming commentary. Listen in as we talk Judges--not the Supreme Court kind, but people like Samson, Deborah, Gideon, and Jephthah. For the free-for-all, Mike, Mark, and Wade talk about the life and work of Billy Graham, who fell asleep in Jesus the morning we recorded. A couple of books mentioned in the episode:
America’s Pastor: Billy Graham and the Shaping of a Nation by Grant Wacker Judges/Ruth - People's Bible Commentary by John Lawrenz

In this Wingin' It session, the seventh part of our series on the Divine Service, Mike and Wade discuss the Hymn of the Day and the Sermon. These two parts fall right at the middle of the service and are central to the Divine Service within most Lutheran churches.

00:00 - Introduction 01:44 - Scripture Narrative (Mark 9:2-8) 15:27 - Free-for-All (Winter Olympics) 31:02 - Main Topic (The Season of Lent)
On episode FORTY-SIX of Let the Bird Fly! Wade, Mike, and Peter sit down to discuss the season of Lent. Mike kicks off the episode by saying “Farewell to Alleluia” and Wade walks us through Mark’s account of the Transfiguration, before we all share our insightful thoughts on the Winter Olympics. Eventually we find our way to the main topic, where we discuss some of what makes the season of Lent stand out to each of us. A couple of books that are mentioned in the episode are Catherine Pickstock’s After Writing: On the Liturgical Consummation of Philosophy and Oliver Burkeman’s The Antidote: Happiness for People Who Can't Stand Positive Thinking. You may need to listen to the episode to see how they relate to our topic (the discussion meandered a bit, as is our want), but trust us, they do.

This Wingin' It session is the sixth part of our series on the Divine Service. Mike and Wade are joined in the studio this time by Dr. Kristi Meyer to discuss the Lectionary. You may remember Dr. Meyer from our episode on math (which was also the episode in which Nick may have jeopardized his future). If you're wondering what a cryptographer has to say offer on the Divine Service, you may be surprised to hear that Dr. Meyer has published on the topic in her recently published booklet Understanding Lutheran Worship. We are thrilled that Dr. Meyer was able and willing to join us. Before discussing the Lectionary, however, Mike provides a quick overview of the Salutation and Prayer of the Day. If you're enjoying this series, we'd be thrilled if you'd share them with friends and family. As a reminder, this is the sixth part of the series that Mike promised on Episode 33, which will cover various parts of the Western Rite.

00:00 - Introduction 03:13 - Scripture Narrative (1 John 4:7-12) 12:05 - Free-for-All (Terms and Phrases That Drive You Crazy) 24:41 - Main Topic (The Four Loves by C.S. Lewis)
On episode FORTY-FIVE of Let the Bird Fly! the guys (sans Ben) get together to discuss C.S. Lewis’ book The Four Loves. Wade uses this book in at least one of his classes and Mike has started to use it as well, so they thought it might be an easy episode. Despite their lazy approach to the podcast, we think the conversation proves to be interesting (probably because they let Peter on to talk as well). Of course if you’re looking for really interesting conversation on C.S. Lewis, you should make sure to check out the episode that the guys over at the The Thinking Fellows podcast recently put out. (They have some great C.S. Lewis links up on the show notes for that episode as well, so make sure to check those out while you're there.) Before getting to The Four Loves, Wade discusses 1 John 4:7-12 between trying to knock Oliva’s book out of her hands and they all discuss terms and phrases that drive them crazy. (CliffsNotes version: Mike really...um...doesn’t have much to say, Wade is fascinated by existential postmodern thought, Oliva is like….um...not real sure, and Peter doesn’t have much to say, per se.) Eventually they do what they promise, though, and get to C.S. Lewis’ wonderful work The Four Loves. If you don’t have a copy, you can easily find a used copy, or there’s a PDF available here.

This Wingin' It session is the fifth part of our series on the Divine Service. Mike and Wade get together once again to discuss the Gloria. After all of the "beginnings" it seems like the Divine Service might finally be moving forward now! And where do we go, but right to Christmas (Gloria in excelsis Deo). But it's not all Christmas; in fact, Mike somehow finds a way to even talk Lincoln! If you're enjoying this series, we'd be thrilled if you'd share them with friends and family.

00:00 - Introduction 11:16 - Scripture Narrative (Romans 6) 13:24 - Free-for-All (Wrap-up of the NFL Season) 28:13 - Main Topic (Simul iustus et peccator)
On episode FORTY-FOUR of Let the Bird Fly! the guys are all back together for the first time in a while and they take the opportunity to discuss a topic that they’ve talked about talking about for quite some time; namely, “the simul” (or simul iustus et peccator). The simul refers to the paradoxical situation in which Christians find themselves as simultaneously lost to sin (peccator) and fully redeemed by the work of Christ (iustus). In English this is often translated as: “at the same time sinner and saint.” This episode serves as a something of a second pass at the Law & Gospel episode that the guys did a number of episodes back. (If you haven’t listened to that episode yet, we’d definitely recommend doing so.) Peter was kind enough to invite the guys and their families over to Mike’s house to record this episode (after a nice meal, of course), so a number of the Let the Bird Fly! children join the guys for the introduction. Wade, forgetting to prepare a Scripture Narrative for this episode, simply reads a portion of Romans 6, with almost no commentary whatsoever before they guys wrap up their thoughts on the NFL season in the Free-for-All. When they do make it to the main topic, though, the guys find that they have quite a bit to say (alright, they knew that going in, but seriously, this is a long one...we hope you can make it through). The conversation (aided by a few beverages) is free-wheeling, but we hope you find it interesting and thought-provoking. If you are able to make it through and have any thoughts or questions, be sure to share with us on Facebook or via email. And, if you'd like to watch the chapel devotions given by Wade and Mike, which are referenced in the episode, you can find Wade's here, and you can see Mike in his finest vestments (along with his much ballyhooed hand-gestures) right here.

In this Wingin' It session, the fourth part of our series on the Divine Service, Wade and Mike discuss the Introit and the Kyrie. Despite the build up of the cage match over the Kyrie, Wade pretty much concedes that Mike is right (which probably surprises no one but Wade). These Wingin' It sessions on the Divine Service have been going a bit longer than normal, but we hope our listeners have been enjoying them. As a reminder, this is the fourth part of the series that Mike promised on Episode 33, which will cover various parts of the Western Rite. If you missed the previous episodettes on the Divine Service, you can catch up right here. And if you haven't listened to our full episode on worship, you can find that right here. Thanks for listening!

00:00 - Introduction 04:35 - Free-for-All (Historical Blind-spots) 15:14 - Main Topic (The Book of Deuteronomy)
On episode FORTY-THREE of Let the Bird Fly! the guys welcome Dr. Mark Braun back for his fourth episode with us. (If you’ve missed the previous three, you should rectify that now. You can do so by downloading Episode 5, Episode 14, and Episode 29.) Dr. Braun has been on to talk about the inter-testamental period, the split between the Missouri and Wisconsin synods, and his paper on Black Geneva Piety; but this time he is here to talk about everyone’s favorite book of the Bible--Deuteronomy. He is joined by Pastor Ben Zak, who happened to be on campus and so got to join in on the fun, too. He serves at St. John Lutheran on 68th and Forest Home in Milwaukee. On the way to the main topic, Mark, Ben, Mike and Wade talk historical blind spots--what historical or fields do they personally wish they knew more about and what would the church or society be served by learning more about, too. The main topic, as advertised, delves into the last book of the Pentateuch, Deuteronomy, and Mark's crisis of faith which led him to study it. From there the conversation expands to Moses, the Torah, the challenges and perspectives of old age, in connection with Deuteronomy telling us about the aging prophet, and taking off from there. (In one very elucidating moment Wade clarifies that he is NOT saying "that we should all approve of bad stuff and that we should do bad stuff," so make sure to keep that in mind.) And since we know that you’ll be itching to get your hands on Dr. Braun’s book on Deuteronomy, we’re going to give you the chance to win one of TWO copies in our latest BOOK GIVEAWAY. Just follow the link to our BOOK GIVEAWAY PAGE for directions on registering, and don’t forget to share it with your friends and family on social media.

00:00 - Introduction 03:23 - Free-for-All (Favorite Places Seen Traveling in America) 18:10 - Main Topic (In Vino Vocation)
On episode FORTY-TWO of Let the Bird Fly! the guys welcome the Rigge family to discuss what it’s like to open and run a winery in Minnesota. Laura and John Rigge are joined by two of their daughters, as they tell us their story of founding Grandview Valley Winery in Belview, Minnesota. John and Laura know how to treat podcast hosts, as they brought along a tasty bottle of their very own Old Red & White wine to share. As good as the wine is (and it truly is), we think you’ll enjoy their stories just a much as you’ll enjoy their wine. Their passion for their work and for each other is evident throughout the conversation, and we are extremely grateful to them for sharing it with us. Wade was so grateful, in fact, that he made the Rigge’s the first-ever recipients of the Things Wade Likes: Let the Bird Fly! Award, which was fittingly accompanied by a Martin Luther bobblehead. If you find yourself near Belview, Minnesota, do yourself the favor of visiting the Rigge family at Grandview Valley Winery. And even if you’re not in Minnesota, you can keep up with what they’re up to and with the winery on their Facebook Page and on the Twitter Machine.

00:00 - Introduction 02:09 - Free-for-All (Milwaukee's Best) 18:32 - Main Topic (Journalism, Culture, and Milwaukee)
On episode FORTY-ONE of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Mike have the great privilege of welcoming Sharon Patterson into the “studio” for a wide-ranging conversation that wanders through questions ranging from journalism and culture to faith and generational changes. One common theme throughout the discussion seems to be a story rooted in Milwaukee, WI. Mrs. Patterson was the only of her siblings born in Wisconsin, the rest having transplanted from Louisiana. This provides her with a unique insider-outsider perspective of a community that she’s has always called home. It is this perspective, coupled with a talent for telling stories, that results in a fascinating from conversation that covers her time on the radio, through her success with the PBS series Black Nouveau, to her current role in development at Wisconsin Lutheran College. We are extremely grateful to Sharon for her willingness to join us on this episode. We hope you will enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it.

On Episode 33, Mike and Wade sat down to discuss worship, or the Divine Service, and Mike promised a series of Wingin' It episodettes on various parts of the Western Rite. Well, this is the first installment of that promised series. In this Wingin' It Mike and Wade discuss the processional (a fitting place to start). If you haven't listened to our episode on worship, you can do that right here. And if you enjoy this Wingin' It, be sure to stay tuned, as there are more to come. Thanks for listening!

00:00 - Introduction 02:15 - Scripture Narrative (Matthew 2) 13:43 - Free-for-All (Church Days Between Christmas Day and Epiphany) 31:26 - Main Topic (The Season of Epiphany)
On episode FORTY of Let the Bird Fly! Wade and Mike get together to discuss the season of Epiphany. Before getting to Epiphany, however, they take a look at the days that the Church recognizes between Christmas Day and the season of Epiphany. That discussion serves at the Free-for-All, so this is a church year heavy episode, so we hope you don't get too church-yeared-out.

On episode THIRTY-NINE of Let the Bird Fly! Wade, Mike, and Peter are without Ben, but they are joined by EIGHT of their lovely daughters. Many of these voices are not strangers to the podcast, but this is the first time we’ve had them all on the same episode, as well as first appearances by Beatrice and another Sophia (that’s two Sophia’s for those keeping count at home). The girls help the guys through the Scripture Narrative, which turns out to be more of a hymn study, as Wade walks through From Heaven Above to Earth I Come. They also stick around for the free-for-all, but decide to leave their dads to manage the main topic alone. Speaking of the main topic, the guys share some of their thoughts on Christmas and the Christmas season. The guys mention a couple of books the you might be interested in, so here they are with links to their Amazon page: Luther at the Manger: Christmas Sermons on Isaiah 9:6 trans. Nathan Biebert and Martin Luther's Christmas Book ed. Roland Bainton. From all of us here at Let the Bird Fly!, we wish you and yours a very happy and blessed Christmas!

00:00 - Introduction 03:40 - Scripture Narrative (John 1:24-34) 09:48 - Free-for-All (Favorite and Least-Favorite Christmas Gift Ever) 24:19 - Main Topic (Luther's Baptismal Rite - Part 2)
On episode THIRTY-EIGHT of Let the Bird Fly! the guys hold Wade off for one more episode, so that Mike and Peter can continue the discussion on Luther’s Baptismal Rite that they began with Ben on Episode 37. The guys are joined once again by Peter’s two oldest girls, as well as Mike's middle daughter. After Peter discusses how the Gospel according to St. John handles the baptism of Jesus, the girls help the guys our in the Free-for-All. Mike proves to be so-twentieth-century and Peter once again discusses his “classy” upbringing. But eventually they make it back around to Luther’s Baptismal Rite, picking up with Luther’s wonderful Flood Prayer. Mike again references volume 3 of Francis Pieper’s Christian Dogmatics. And Oliva demonstrates the Augustinian influence that has caused her to reconsider her Donatist position on baptism. If you haven’t listened to Part 1 of our discussion yet, you may want to do that first. You can find that in Episode 37. We hope the two-part discussion isn’t too much, but trust us, we reigned ourselves in (we probably could’ve made this a twenty-part discussion).

00:00 - Introduction 02:52 - Scripture Narrative (Mark 10:13-16) 06:29 - Free-for-All (Favorite Part of Christmas--excluding Jesus and presents) 25:15 - Main Topic (Luther's Baptismal Rite - Part 1)
On episode THIRTY-SEVEN of Let the Bird Fly! the guys shake Wade once again and are able to talk about what they want to for a change. Ben, Mike, and Peter welcome a couple of their daughters (between the three of them they have 9 daughters and no sons) into the studio while they discuss Luther’s Baptismal Rite. The talk goes long, so they decide to pick it up again on a future episode, so we’re calling this Part 1. Before getting to the main topic (and two Peter’s daughters revealing that he’s evidently raising them as Donatists), Mike walks us through the little children coming to Jesus in Mark 10. We also get into the Christmas spirit asking, What’s your favorite part of Christmas? in the Free-for-All (and we prohibited the obvious answers of Jesus’s birth and presents). Although we don’t make it all the way through the Baptismal Rite, we hope that you still find this first part of our discussion worth your while. Mike refers to Francis Pieper’s Christian Dogmatics a number of times during the episode. If you’re looking for that text, it can be found in Volume 3. One last thing, we're doing another BOOK GIVEAWAY (just in time for Christmas, no less). If you'd like to sign-up for your chance to win a signed copy of Wade's most recent book, A Path Strewn with Sinners: A Devotional Study of Mark’s Gospel & His Race to the Cross, head over to our BOOK GIVEAWAY PAGE and register. And if you're wondering what Wade's book is all about, head over to Episode 30, where Wade talked with Peter about his book.

In this Wingin' It session, Wade discusses the great devotional work by Johann Gerhard, Sacred Meditations, which he translated and that was originally published in 2008. As we continue on in that Advent season, perhaps these meditations can provide some refreshment, grace, and perspective during what is often a busy, frustrating, and maybe anxious or melancholic time of year. If you'd like to get the Meditations for yourself, they are available on Amazon right here. Wade mentions the devotions produced by Mike's previous parish, St. John’s Lutheran Church in Wood Lake, MN. If you're interested in checking them out, or if you'd like to listen to Episode 35, where they were originally mentioned, you can find of all that on our show notes page for Episode 35.

00:00 - Introduction 03:39 - Scripture Narrative (Philippians 4) 14:35 - Free-for-All (Favorite Hymns) 34:51 - Main Topic (The Guys Get Music)
On episode THIRTY-SIX of Let the Bird Fly! the guys welcome Dr. Jeremy Zima to discuss what he discusses best: Music. Mike discusses the love of beautiful things (hey, one might find beauty in music!) and the freedom we have to venture all things while seeking that which is beautiful. Dr. Zima shows off his Bible History chops, but Wade cuts him off (perhaps because he was feeling threatened). In the Free-for-All the guys discuss their favorite hymns, as well as what has happened to Peter. In fact, they wonder so much, that it may have been a bit awkward for Dr. Zima (but he said he’s a “fanboy” of the podcast, so he should’ve known to be prepared for anything). Mike shares Mr. Bean’s difficulty with singing A Hymn of Glory Let Us, but he likes it all the same. Dr. Zima sings the praises of Abide with Me, a hymn that Wade has mentioned in the past is a favorite of his as well. Ben, as only he could do, decides not to select a hymn, or a hymn writer, or even a composer of music that’s used in hymns; no, Ben selects a hymn translator as his favorite hymn. Well, at least he picks a good one in Catherine Winkworth. (In Kindergarten Ben’s report card simply read, “Refuses not follow rules!”) Wade finally coughs up his favorite hymn, after making everyone else go first, but you’ll have to listen to find out what it is. Despite some technical difficulties that lead to some rough audio for Ben in the Main Topic, the guys have a great conversation with Dr. Zima about what he does at the college, in the community, at his church, and all having to do with music. On a few occasions the guys mention that they need to get Dr. Zima back to discuss a growing list of topics that he just touched on in this episode. So if you enjoy this episode (and we think you will), we hope that we’ll have opportunities to talk with Dr. Zima in the future. On a side note, when the guys discovered the poor audio in the Main Topic they brainstormed a few ideas of how to handle it. Wade's idea was to insert the Mr. Men theme song every time Ben was talking. While this proved impractical, we thought you might want to imagine how that might have gone. Here's the Mr. Men theme song that Wade seems fond of (although Peter would probably prefer the original Mr. Men theme song, as it seems to fit better with his Brit Lit phase as a grade schooler).

In this brief Wingin' It (is Wade ever brief?), Wade discusses the difference between some key terms. What's the difference between a religion and a denomination, a false teacher and a heretic? How do they relate, and how do we relate to them? Are these terms sometimes used irresponsibly, too lightly or quickly? Are they sometimes not used often enough? How should Christians deal with differences on teaching and with authors, whether from the past or the present, who have perhaps erred on certain points while making valuable contributions on others? Wade delves, briefly, into such questions in this session. We hope you enjoy this Wingin' It. If you're digging the podcast, we'd be thrilled if you'd share it with your friends, subscribe, rate, and review us on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play, or TuneIn Radio. Thanks for listening!

In this Bird's Eye View episode, we bring you the third and final part of a three-part series from a talk that Wade gave at St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Mukwonago, WI. Wade was asked to talk on Luther and the reformation, and he did so following the rough outline suggested by Martin Brecht's three-volume series on Luther. In this, the part of his talk, Wade covers latter years of Luther's life, from roughly 1532-1546. This is the time period the Brecht covers in the third volume of his series, entitled: Martin Luther - The Preservation of the Church 1532-1546. If you missed the first two parts of Wade's talk, you can find the first part here and the second part here. And if you haven't yet subscribed to the podcast, you can do that right here. Wade is grateful to St. John's for having him come and speak, and we are grateful to them for allowing Wade to record it so that we could share it with our listeners. Stay tuned for the next two installments of this series.

00:00 - Introduction 02:56 - Scripture Narrative (Matthew 21) 20:21 - Free-for-All (Would you rather live without the internet or AC and heating?) 42:29 - Main Topic (The Season of Advent)
On episode THIRTY-FIVE of Let the Bird Fly! the guys discuss the first season in the church year: Advent. Without Ben and without a guest Mike, Wade, and Peter somehow find a way to talk for well over an hour about the season of Advent (well, they do take some time out for the Free-for-All, I suppose). The discussion touches on the history and practices of the church year in general, but always with a focus on the first season of the church year. Mike mentions the O Antiphons, which he plans to write short devotions on during this Advent season. (Check back on LetTheBirdFly.com mid-December, if you’re interested. Or better yet, sign-up for one of our email lists and we’ll email you when they are posted.) Mike also mentioned the devotions produced by St. John’s Lutheran Church in Wood Lake, MN. If you are interested, you can find the Daily Devotions here and the Family Devotions here. We hope that you enjoy the discussion. If it sparks any thoughts or questions, please let us know.

In this Wingin' It, Wade reviews Andrew Pettegree's, Brand Luther. (Or, if you're looking for the full title: Brand Luther: How an Unheralded Monk Turned His Small Town into a Center of Publishing, Made Himself the Most Famous Man in Europe--and Started the Protestant Reformation.) Wade recorded this a few weeks ago (which you'll notice, especially if you're a regular listener to the podcast), but you'll still appreciate his discussion of Brand Luther. This is the book that Wade would recommend for the reader looking to find a fresh take on Luther and the Reformation.

In this Bird's Eye View episode, we bring you the second of a three-part series from a talk that Wade gave at St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Mukwonago, WI. Wade was asked to talk on Luther and the reformation, and he did so following the rough outline suggested by Martin Brecht's three-volume series on Luther. In this, the second part of his talk, Wade covers the heart of the Reformation, roughly the years 1521-1532.

00:00 - Introduction 03:54 - Scripture Narrative (Colossians 2) 12:11 - Free-for-All (Favorite Holidays) 31:35 - Main Topic (The Guys Talk Holidays)
On episode THIRTY-FOUR of Let the Bird Fly! the guys are all back together for the first time in a long while. Since we’re heading into the “holiday season” the guys decide to discuss the holidays: what are they, what do they mean, how do they change, etc. Before arriving at the main topic, however, Wade discusses Colossians 2 in the Scripture Narrative and Mike chimes in with some talk about the Gospel according to St. Matthew. On an episode about holidays, what else could the guys discuss other than their favorite holidays (and holiday foods, of course). But eventually, as always seems to be the case, they finally get around to the Main Topic. This one may be a bit less structured than it normally is (I know, scary, right?), and Wade offers 10,000 disclaimers, but we hope you’ll enjoy it all the same. If it sparks any thoughts, be sure to share them with us on Facebook, Twitter, or at podcast@LetTheBirdFly.com.

In this Bird's Eye View episode, we bring you the first of a three-part series from a talk that Wade gave at St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Mukwonago, WI. Wade was asked to talk on Luther and the reformation, and he did so following the rough outline suggested by Martin Brecht's three-volume series on Luther. This first part of his talk covers Luther's early years, up to the early part of the Reformation. This is roughly the time the Brecht covers in his first volume: Martin Luther - His Road to Reformation 1483-1521. Wade is grateful to St. John's for having him come and speak, and we are grateful to them for allowing Wade to record it so that we could share it with our listeners. Stay tuned for the next two installments of this series.
