Episode Description

In this episode, we continue our reading through the Large Catechism by Martin Luther, turning to the Introduction and the First Article of the Apostles’ Creed.


What does it really mean to say, “I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth”?


Luther teaches that this confession is not mere memorization—it is trust. Trust that your body, your life, your daily bread, your family, and every good gift come from the gracious hand of a Father who still preserves and defends you. This article humbles our pride, calms our anxiety, and anchors us in the goodness of God.


We also share how this confession shapes our mercy work—caring for vulnerable children and families as a living expression of faith in the Father who provides.


Listen, confess, and be strengthened.
