379: Chrysostom - On Wealth and Poverty

And so it begins. In this episode, we read the letters of J.R.R. Tolkien for Lent. We discuss sin and mercy, Eden and scientific materialism, ecumenism and cults, and much more! SHOW NOTES:  The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien https://amzn.to/3FbRqLS  Shelby Foote https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shelby_Foote Phrygian Mode https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phrygian_mode Max Richter - The New Four Seasons Vivaldi Recomposed https://www.maxrichter-fourseasons.com/en/   "The phrase “kill your darlings” originated with British writer Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch in his 1916 book On the Art of Writing."   Luther: The human soul is in the middle of temporal things, like the center in a circumference. If, then, it does not remain by itself inwardly, it is quiet and asleep. But it is openly busy on the circumference, it is endlessly divided, as Augustine beautifully discusses it. But if it remains within, all things move in on it and converge on it, just as, if the center remains, the circumference depends totally on it. But if you move the center, you have moved the whole circumference and you have changed the circle. Thus all these words show how precious the faithful souls are in the presence of God.

The Impossible Prize In this episode, we explore The Impossible Prize: A Theology of Addiction, a forthcoming book that examines addiction not just as a habit or illness, but as a form of misplaced worship. We discuss how addiction draws us toward false gods, demanding our devotion and shaping our lives in ways we barely recognize. More than a personal struggle, addiction weaves itself into families, communities, and churches—warping trust, distorting love, and hollowing out the soul. How can we reclaim what has been lost? How do we confront addiction not just physically and mentally, but as a deeply spiritual battle? Join us as we dig into these questions and consider a way forward, one rooted in truth, grace, and the renewal of the whole person.

Who Made Who? Today, we read an essay by Rev. Dr. John Kleinig about what makes a theologian. Dr. Kleinig explains Martin Luther’s threefold description of how the master of theology, the Holy Spirit, makes one a theologian through contemplative prayer, meditating on Scripture within the communion of saints, and being translated into the kingdom of heaven by God’s Word—all this and much more on this week’s episode of the podcast.

Leper Messiah. In this episode, we read Bo Giertz’s commentary on Jesus’ healing of a leper and Cornelius’ servant… boy… slave boy.
