This week, Theology Teachers Mr Parrott and Mr Fischer are on the Pod to discuss one of Luther's lesser-known teachings: the Theology of the Cross. They compare it with the Theology of Glory and discuss why it's a worthy Christian worldview.

If you'd like to find out more about Theology of the Cross, here are their recommended reads:

On Being a Theologian of the Cross: Reflections on Luther's Heidelberg Disputation, 1518 by Gerhard Forde

The Spirituality of the Cross by Gene Veith

The Cost of Discipleship by Bonhoeffer (see the last chapter)

Further questions? Email the guys: caleb.fischer@lhsparker.org and craig.parrott@lhsparker.org. They'd love to chat with you about this topic!

Next in our summer series, Mr Shull and Mr Schlecht will answer student-submitted theology questions. See you in two weeks!
