Is taking dominion over electronic devices a valid sermon topic?

Author: 1517 August 15, 2022 Duration: 13:19

Ted asks about the value of preaching on 'taking dominion' with regard to electronic devices. Rod talks about confining preaching to the Biblical themes of law and Gospel, how Lutherans pull from all across the Old and New Testaments to do so, and puts particular subjects into those categories and what it means for us sinners.

In the spirit of those free-flowing back deck conversations in Irvine, Talks with Dad Rod captures the essence of long talks about life, faith, and everything in between. This podcast is a continuation of that tradition, now hosted by Rod and his son, Ted. Each brief episode distills the warmth and depth of those discussions into a six-minute format, offering a moment of reflection amidst daily routines. Listeners will hear candid exchanges rooted in a Christian worldview, yet broadly engaging with culture, philosophy, and the nuances of modern society. It’s less a formal lecture and more like pulling up a chair to listen in on a thoughtful dialogue between a father and son. The podcast naturally explores spirituality and personal experience, aiming to provide genuine connection and insight one short talk at a time.
