The HT Simulcast is a no-holds-barred, buckle-in, undiluted Gospel dispensing Higher Things Lutheran podcast. Really. We totally know what we’re doing.
The HT Simulcast ended its spectacular run of 80 episodes and transformed into As Lutheran As It Gets.
As Pastors Riley and Brown go through James 4, they look at the foolishness that our desires and a love of the world can drive us to. Pastor Gillespie once again produces with cool jazz vibes.

Christ, the Church, Love, Marriage, Economics, and Vocation. (Part 2)
As sinners, we think about our relationships selfishly, wondering, “What’s in it for me?” We even rank peoples’ value the same way. This way of thinking really becomes a big problem when we apply it to marriage and dating relationships. As Christians, we look to what God has revealed about marriage in Scripture, especially Christ and the Church. Join Sandra and Pastor Riley this week as they talk about what marriage is, how this relates to dating for youth, and what to look for in potential spouses.

In James 3, Pastors Riley and Brown examine the dangers of an unchecked tongue that forgets the centrality of mercy in the Christian faith and life. God is to set the tone for how we speak for each other; He speaks mercy to us!

I Just Can’t Believe That! – Part 2: Eventually, all Christians eventually face doubts about their faith. Whether it’s being unsure about something new or different from what they’ve known before, or an all-out doubting that all this Christianity business is true…sinners doubt. If you tell someone about your doubts, do you worry about being drummed out of the church? Should you just keep it all to yourself, try harder to believe, and hope your faith returns? Sandra and Pastor Riley discuss doubt, faith, confession and how as Lutherans, our confession of faith actually includes room for doubt. We believe that we can’t believe.

Pastors Riley and Brown discuss how James now reveals the folly of the sinful man, who shows foolish favoritism and also tries to separate faith and works, which always exist together.

Rev. Donavon Riley (of the Simulcast) and Rev. Eric J. Brown (of the Gospeled Boldly) spend a few minutes wandering through James Chapter 1, seeing why there is so much for Gospel loving simul-folk to love about this often malaigned book. Jazzy production and ambiance is provided by the king of Caffeine, Pastor Christopher Gillespie. This brief series will run 5 or 6 episodes, just enough to cover James.

We all want the Christian faith to be passed on to the next generations, but numbers across the board aren’t indicating that is going well. This week, Sandra and Pastor Riley talk about what it means to be the communion of saints, who gather to receive gifts from God in Word and Sacrament, and learn together the liturgy and traditions of the Church. We also learn the history of this Church family, so we can all get to know (and even love!) each other as mothers and fathers and sisters and brothers — a family in Christ through Baptism, who remember and celebrate births and deaths, and everything in between. Together. From generation to generation.
