This week, HT-Radio celebrates the Reformation with Pr. Mark Buetow of Bethel Lutheran Church in Du Quoin, IL. Pr. Buetow talks about the theology of Martin Luther and the theology surrounding the reformation. Then, in the last segment, Pr. Borghardt and Jon have some fun. First they call up Bekah Kohlmeier (Jon’s sister) to wish her a happy 20th birthday. Then, they discuss how Lutheranism looks like a cult to others, by the burning of incense, genuflecting, making the sign of the cross and other things that look weird to others. Finally, because there needs to be a name for this time together, they call up Conference Coordinator Sandra Ostapowich. She is far more creative than either Pr. Borghardt or Jon so she’s bound to come up with a more creative name than, “Borghardt and Kohlmeier time.”
