From henceforth thou shalt catch men, from now on you will be catching people, I will make you fishers of men, fishers of men, fishers of men. Whether you&apos;ve learned about this week&apos;s lectionary text in your Sunday School songs or not, Adam, Kiri and Mason get the chance to have a conversation with Dr. Chris Croghan about Jesus calling his first disciples on the shores the Lake of Gennesaret. Questions Adam, Kiri and Mason ask:<ul><li>Why are the small details important, like Simon cleaning his nets?</li><li>Why do people react in fear to experiencing God? </li><li>How should preachers preach this text without telling people to go fishing?</li></ul>Interested in sponsoring an episode of Scripture First?

Poor, Hungry and Hated | Luke 6:17-26 with Sarah Stenson

Three millennials sit down with Lutheran theologians to understand how Scripture is working in our lives. God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, sin, faith, forgiveness, Luther, and more are on the table as Mason Van Essen, Kiri Haugen, and Adam Guthmiller discuss each week's upcoming lectionary Bible passage with Luther House of Study's theologians to hear the context in and around Scripture before it's preached in church.
