Episode Details

This episode traces the indictment of Israel in Micah—framed by Deuteronomy’s blessing and curse—and the nation’s hopeless plea of what can be offered to God. It then shows how Psalm 116 points to the Messiah as the definitive answer: Christ’s obedience, sacrifice, and resurrection satisfy God’s justice.

Listeners are invited to share in Christ’s merits, receive the cup of salvation in the sacraments, and respond with the lifelong sacrifice of thanksgiving expressed in worship and service to neighbor.
