Song of Songs Introduction: God’s love for the church.
Thy Strong Word from KFUO Radio
11/22/21 • 59 min
Rev. Dr. Christopher Mitchell, Concordia Commentary Editor at Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, MO joins Rev. Brady Finnern to start off our study of Song of Songs. Find the Concordia Commentary for Song of Songs at cph.org/p-683-Song-of-Songs-Concordia-Commentary.aspx.
Solomon, in the prime of his life, writes concerning the deep love for his Shulamite bride. The LORD gives us a glimpse of His love for the church by uplifting marriage of a husband and wife. The metaphorical and poetic language can be difficult to understand, but ultimately points us to the future hope of the eschatological marriage feast which is ours by Christ’s love on the cross. “O Holy Spirit, open our hearts and minds as we study the Song of Songs and point us to the anticipation of Christ’s coming and the future glory in the new heaven and earth. In His name, Amen”

Ecclesiastes 7:1-13. All is vanity: “Lord take my foolishness and make me wise.”
Thy Strong Word from KFUO Radio
11/04/21 • 56 min
Rev. Dr. Curtis Deterding, pastor of Zion Lutheran Church in Fort Myers, FL joins host Rev. Brady Finnern to study Ecclesiastes 7:1-13.
Solomon was a realist. He didn’t try to make it sound like everything was perfect, but proclaims our need to see the real brokenness of the world (mourning, sorrow, and death) in order to fully understand the need of the cross and a new heart. Laughter and flattery might help for a short time, but he reminds us that it is the LORD and His Word that sustains us and gives us hope. “Lord God, fill us with the wisdom from Solomon so that we consider Your works. By Your Holy Spirit, help us to filter this life by the lens of Christ’s death so that we live and speak Your Words trusting in You. In Christ, Amen”

2 Kings 17: The deportation of Israel to Assyria. Lord have mercy.
Thy Strong Word from KFUO Radio
06/24/21 • 57 min
Rev. Philip Hoppe, pastor of Peace Lutheran Church in Finlayson, MN & St. Paul Lutheran Church in Bruno, MN joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study 2 Kings 17.
Many times God allows destruction and trials for reasons we do not know. However the LORD clearly shows us why Israel was taken from their homeland: sin, idolatry, sacrificially offering their children, building of altars to other gods, stubbornness, and ultimately a loss of faith. These issues not only affected one person, but their families, their children’s children, and all future generations. Repent, believe, and live a holy life. “Lord God, destroy our idols and fill us with Your Holy Spirit to stay strong in Christ and help us to live a holy life. In Christ, Amen”
Leviticus 9 — Be holy as the LORD is holy: God’s restart by His glory revealed
Thy Strong Word from KFUO Radio
09/23/21 • 57 min
Rev. Dr. Brian Kachelmeier of Redeemer Lutheran Church, Los Alamos, NM joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study Leviticus 9.
Worship without God’s Word is idolatry. Although Aaron had an issue with idolatry on Mt. Sinai, now the LORD patiently guides him as the high priest to worship by His Word. On the 8th day, a day of new creation in the Bible, Aaron makes sacrifices (burnt, grain, sin, wave, peace) for his sins and the sins of the people. When there was atonement, Aaron and Moses, went into the tent and in their return, the people saw God’s glory. In the same way, when we receive His forgiveness on account of Christ, we see God’s glory revealed. “Lord God, keep us from idolatry by worshipping with God’s Word. As we see the sacrifice of Christ, we see the glory of the LORD who dwells among us and grants us full forgiveness by His blood. To be all the glory. Amen”
1 Samuel 21: Bold ☧, King's Son Takes Loaves, Called Crazy
Thy Strong Word from KFUO Radio
09/29/20 • 51 min
Rev. Ken Wagener, retired LCMS pastor in Mooresville, Indiana, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study 1 Samuel 21.
“So the priest gave [David] the holy bread, for there was no bread there but the bread of the Presence, which is removed from before the LORD.” Why is David being so ‘selective’ with the truth and so bold as to ask for the bread of the Presence? Chapter 21 shows how David at this time was a desperate man on the run—he was bold out of necessity. David, the son-in-law of King Saul, then feigns madness when the Philistines recognize him. All this points ahead to Jesus Christ, the son of the true King, who boldly served the needs of others, and who was even derided as crazy and demon possessed by his enemies. Love led Him also to take five holy loaves, and He fed five thousand of God’s people.

Rev. John Lukomski, co-host of Wrestling with the Basics on KFUO Radio joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study Ecclesiastes 9. Find Wrestling with the Basics at kfuo.org/WrestlingWithTheBasics.
The same event happens to all: Death. Solomon gives us a glimpse of life without the LORD, which easily leads us to despair. The grace of our LORD allows us to lament these realities, but He pulls us back to Him again that whether you are wise, fools, wicked, righteous, rich, or poor are all fallen sinners, but He is our wisdom and in Him we are approved. “O Lord, Jesus Christ, as You are Wisdom, fill us with Your wisdom so that we are able to eat & drink with faith of Your approval from the cross. We give You thanks that one sinner might destroy, but You as the One Savior have saved us completely. Amen”
Genesis 17:1-14. Now you know that you are my people.
Thy Strong Word from KFUO Radio
06/15/22 • 56 min
Rev. Jason Bredeson, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church in Sacramento, CA joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study Genesis 17:1-14.
Abram receives the full-meal deal of promises from the LORD: a new name, promise of many nations, and the sign of circumcision. His covenant toward us is everlasting. The promise that we still have today by the blood of Christ. In Baptism, we are marked as one of His own. He gives us the fullness of salvation, reminding us to live in His covenant as His holy people. “Lord God, You have made Your mark on us to know of Your everlasting covenant in Christ and we ask for Your help to live holy lives as Your covenantal people on account of Christ. Lord have mercy. Amen”
Joshua 6: The Walls Came Tumbling Down
Thy Strong Word from KFUO Radio
09/22/23 • 56 min
The Rev. Steven Theiss, pastor of Immanuel Lutheran Church in New Wells, MO, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Joshua 6.
Joshua 6 unveils one of the most iconic stories in the Bible—the miraculous fall of Jericho's walls. In this chapter, we witness Joshua's divine strategy for conquering this formidable city. The Israelites, led by priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant, march around Jericho for seven days, while trumpets sound. On the seventh day, the walls of Jericho dramatically collapse, and the city is taken according to God’s will.
The Book of Joshua is a compelling account of the Israelites' conquest of Canaan under the leadership of Joshua. It narrates their journey from the crossing of the Jordan River to the triumphant capture of the Promised Land. Filled with military campaigns, divine guidance, and moments of faith and obedience, this book underscores the fulfillment of God's promises and the importance of unwavering commitment to their divine mission. It stands as a powerful testament to the faith, resilience, and unity of the Israelites as they claim the inheritance promised to them by God.
