Karl Fabrizius (pastor of Our Father Lutheran Church, Greenfield, WI, and departmental editor for Gottesdienst) joins us to discuss and elaborate on one of his recent columns for the print journal (Michaelmas 2020). Fabrizius notes a principle or  tendency that runs through the accounts in the Bible that reveals our works-righteousness: "We are so quick to think that the church stands or falls on the basis of our works rather than the word of Christ." Account after account, story after story, Fabrizius shows us this tendency in them and thus in ourselves, while at the same time showing us that their Savior is ours as well.
