Not everyone loves language and history is both exciting to some and boring to other. But why are these topics important for Lutheran Pastors in the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS)? In this episode Mike and Pastor Pete talk about the importance of language as well as the caution when it comes to the use of commentaries as a substitute to personal Bible Reading. We talk about similarities between pastoral training and education training in other fields (Mike's experience in meteorology and forecasting) as a way to understand how we are preparing our young people to be Pastors in our church body. And we talk a bit about the struggle of talking history with people who don't always love it.

We hope you'll enjoy the conversation.
