About this episode

Mike Yagley and Evan Gaertner discuss Martin Luther's views on Baptism in the context of the Babylonian Captivity.

Mike Yagley and Evan Gaertner begin a two-session study on Martin Luther’s section on Baptism in the Babylonian Captivity. Dr. Luther affirms that Baptism is a good, solid ship that remains intact even amidst the shipwreck of our souls. A symbolic ship named Sacramentum sails through the sea of sin and doubt toward a radiant sunrise and castle. Beer Break TROPICÁLIA is an IPA from Creature Comforts Brewing Company from Athens, Georgia.
