I was listening to it earlier today. Over the years of listening to the show off and on, especially when Don Matzat was the host, gradually Martin Luther's understanding of the faith snuck under, over, and around my Bapticostal mental block.<br /><br />With the shift toward rock concert aesthetics in much of evangelicalism, my wife's doctor (she is both hearing and vision impaired) advised her to find a church without the light shows and ear splitting music. After about a year or so, we found that the Lutheran church offers the sound teaching and reverent worship we needed!actionsubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04908121736753717795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291232.post-32229637392714672242008-06-14T22:43:00.000-05:002008-06-14T22:43:00.000-05:00I'm a non-lutheran, and actually a baptist, but th...I'm a non-lutheran, and actually a baptist, but there where many programs, that I thought were invaluable. I do share the same view of unlimited atonement that many lutherans do. <BR/><BR/>It was an excellent program while it lasted. I appreciated the journals. <BR/><BR/>I even signed the petition to see the program returned to the air. In reality, I don't believe it will be returned to the air. <BR/><BR/>In it's history, it looks like they removed one radio host, and then the dumped the program altogether. <BR/><BR/>I believe it's up to the local pastors and congregations that hold to the same truths to teach those same truths. <BR/><BR/>From pulpits, and blogs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291232.post-88825154617954871202008-04-11T14:39:00.000-05:002008-04-11T14:39:00.000-05:00What a beautiful and touching testimony to Issues ...What a beautiful and touching testimony to Issues Etc.

The listening community needs to support it financially and let their local stations know they want the program back on.
