このコンテンツについて

 In a time marked by spiritual confusion and experience-driven worship, the distinct voice of confessional Lutheranism is often lost amid the noise of modern evangelical culture. Many—even lifelong Christians—have never encountered the biblical clarity, theological depth, and enduring comfort offered by the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS). Anchored in Christ exists to bridge that gap. This podcast presents the core teachings of confessional Lutheranism in a format that’s both engaging and accessible. Through thoughtful conversation, scriptural teaching, and real-life application, Anchored in Christ introduces listeners to the unique theological and pastoral strengths of the LCMS. It’s not just another Christian podcast—it’s a clear, compassionate, and uncompromising proclamation of Christ crucified for sinners, set against the backdrop of today’s theological trends. ⸻ Why It Matters The LCMS has long been committed to faithfully confessing the Gospel, but its distinctiveness is often misunderstood or overlooked—especially in a landscape shaped by the influence of big-box churches and decision-centered spirituality. Anchored in Christ invites listeners to rediscover what makes Lutheran theology both rich and deeply comforting: • The centrality of Word and Sacrament in worship • The assurance of a Christ-centered faith, not rooted in personal decision but divine promise • The historical and biblical grounding of doctrines such as justification, vocation, and the means of grace Whether you’re a disillusioned evangelical, a curious seeker, or a lifelong Lutheran looking to go deeper, this podcast offers a fresh, faithful voice grounded in something far older than today’s trends. ⸻ What to Expect Each episode of Anchored in Christ features clear teaching, honest reflection, and accessible conversations rooted in Lutheran theology. Alongside co-hosts Doug Hannah and Rev. Curt Hoover, you’ll hear from pastors, theologians, and lay leaders as they explore how the Gospel speaks into modern questions with ancient wisdom and lasting hope. This is more than just theological talk—it’s a call back to biblical, sacramental, Christ-centered faith. A faith that’s not built on hype or emotion, but on the enduring promises of God.Copyright 2025 All rights reserved. キリスト教 スピリチュアリティ 聖職・福音主義

  • Eat the Cake: Why Grace Is Better Than You Think

    Eat the Cake: Why Grace Is Better Than You Think
    2025/08/22

    In this first-ever guest episode of Anchored in Christ, Doug Hannah and Pastor Curt Hoover sit down with Pastor Hans Fiene...creator of Lutheran Satire and pastor of Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Crestwood, Missouri.

    Together, they discuss:

    • The origins and impact of Lutheran Satire

    • Why so many people are exhausted by American Christianity

    • The beautiful difference of receiving God’s gifts rather than performing for God

    • Worship that gives Christ, not just inspiration

    • And how eating cake can be the best possible metaphor for the Lord’s Supper

    They also tackle what it’s like growing up Lutheran in a non-Lutheran world, how hymnody shapes our faith, and why the Divine Service isn’t supposed to feel like going to the movies.

    As Pastor Fiene puts it:

    “If you want the confidence of knowing you belong in the presence of Jesus… eat the cake.”

  • Crushed, or Comforted? The answer is YES.

    Crushed, or Comforted? The answer is YES.
    2025/08/15

    Is Christianity supposed to comfort you… or confront you?

    In this somewhat-porchside conversation, Doug Hannah and Pastor Curt Hoover unpack one of the most powerful yet often-overlooked teachings in the Bible: the distinction between Law and Gospel. It’s not about Old Testament vs. New Testament—it’s about how God speaks both honesty and hope to sinners.

    You’ll hear:

    • Why sermons that only offer motivation or only offer comfort are missing something vital

    • How to tell whether a passage of Scripture is Law or Gospel

    • The three uses of the Law—and which one you’re probably neglecting

    • Why grace isn’t just how you start the Christian life, but how you stay in it

    • What Luther called the “highest art in Christendom” and why it still matters today

    You’ll also hear Pastor Curt’s “Word of the Week”… and maybe - just maybe - the porch chairs squeak again.

    Mentioned in this episode:

  • Baptism Now Saves You? What the Bible Really Teaches

    Baptism Now Saves You? What the Bible Really Teaches
    2025/08/08

    “Baptism… now saves you” (1 Peter 3:21).

    For many Christians, that verse is confusing or even ignored. In this episode of Anchored in Christ, Doug Hannah and Pastor Curt Hoover dig deep into what Scripture and historic Christianity actually teach about baptism.

    They explore why the early Church never questioned God’s work through baptism, how the Reformation debates reshaped the conversation, and why understanding baptism as God’s work, not ours, brings lasting assurance.

    You will hear:

    • Why the question “Who’s doing the doing?” changes the whole conversation about baptism

    • How baptism is tied to salvation, regeneration, and the gift of the Holy Spirit

    • Why resisting infant baptism can undermine assurance of salvation

    • How Old Testament foreshadowings like circumcision and ceremonial washings point to baptism

    • What is wrong with treating baptism as just a public declaration

    • Why faith is always in God’s promise, not in our feelings

    Referenced Scripture:

    1 Peter 3:21, Mark 16:16, Romans 6, Colossians 3, John 3, Hebrews, Ephesians 2:8–9

    Recommended Resources:

    • Dying to Live by Harold L. Senkbeil

    • Lutheranism 101 (Concordia Publishing House)

    • Lutheranism 101: Baptism (Concordia Publishing House)

    Whether you are a lifelong Lutheran or exploring these ideas for the first time, this episode will challenge traditions, clarify misunderstandings, and point you back to the promises of God’s Word.

    Listen and be reminded: If you have been baptized into Christ, you can rest in His work for you, no matter how you feel on any given day.
