More Korby on a variety of topics loosely about the Office. . .

If you like Ken Korby unfiltered and as provocative as ever, these recordings will give you something to chew upon. By Virtue of My Office – Dr. Ken Korby’s Lecture to the Southern Illinois District -- is here presented with a few gaps (technology can be counted on to disappoint us from time to time).  Listen and learn. . .


In the first part, Dr. Korby starts by giving some background information on himself including his love for Russian literature, his pastoral exile, and his fight to spread the practice of private confession and absolution. He expresses concern for a lack of critical scholarship on the writing of C.F.W. Walther. Then Korby ventures into Church and the Office of the Ministry discussing rite vocatus, Augsburg Confession 14, and Smalcald Articles 3:12.  He ends up with some comments about our mirroring of the business world, about the incessant need for programs, and more on Loehe and the Missouri Synod (the subject of His doctoral dissertation).

So does Harrison's work, At Home in the House of my Fathers, meet Korby's standard for scholarship on Walther, et al?
