Dr. Paulson has helped me greatly to understand his Outlaw God books that I am slowly going through. He has gone over the first book. I have had to go to many different sources (that the book shows as references) to get a better understanding of what he has written. Deep thoughts and connections...Read full review »

The Outlaw God podcast with Steve Paulson and Caleb Keith pushes the edge of what we think about God and pushes us into hearing the proclamation. I started at the beginning and am still catching up while I listen to the new series on the small catechism, but Paulson and Keith consistently cut...Read full review »

A deep dive into the reform of our concept of God that happened 500 years ago. It wasn’t a more timely than you think. You are not the sum of your mistakes or accomplishments. You are a child of God in His story, forgiven and redeemed! You have everything you need for the next leap of faith Life...Read full review »

Thank you for helping align my perspective

Dr. Paulson is able to dance theologically like no other and Caleb is able to keep up on the dance floor. I started at the beginning and listened to every single episode in about 6 months.

This podcast is a gift to all fans of Dr. Paulson but especially for those of us who have gotten ourselves caught up in the greatness of the Outlaw God trilogy. This podcast reminds me of seminary and having Dr. Paulson walk step-by-step, chapter-by-chapter through books and articles. Caleb Keith...Read full review »

I have a heightened appreciation of Luther and his teachings listening to these podcasts. I am currently listening to an episode a day as my daily devotional. American Protestants (and Catholics) need to relearn Luther’s theology, it’s significance and why it drove the 1517 Reformation of the...Read full review »

I greatly appreciate this podcast and getting to benefit from Dr. Paulson’s teaching. I do believe that Erasmus might have had a few objections to it were he still with us. : )

Love this podcast. It continues to inform me in different ways.
P Klemm via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/19/22
I am a converted Presbyterian to Lutheran mostly because of Justification by Faith through Grace. However, I never understood where my Faith came from. I believed it was a decision that I made to follow Christ. This Podcast has taught me that my Faith was given to me by a promise from God. That...Read full review »

I love hearing the reformed Lutheran perspective and history on all the topics they cover. It’s been a blessing to learn more about Luther and his contemporaries as opposed to just knowing about Calvin and others! Been super blessed by this podcast in my own understanding of who God is and how he...Read full review »

This is really a great podcast. I appreciate the Lutheranism and explanations of the bases of our faith.

I continue to hunger for more of the promise, more to see, and more to hear. You uncover again and again what God is saying to us, and I will continue to listen! I gained a lot from your instruction in classes at Mount Carmel, in chapel at Concordia, and in your writing. I enjoyed meeting...Read full review »

May I not be a noisy gong or clanging cymbal, so please hear this critique as Faith expressed as Love for the sheep AND Shepherds: “Preacher”is not one of the Solos. Faith comes by hearing the Word but preachers certainly aren’t the only or necessary source of proclaiming it. Scripture makes that...Read full review »

Here is an instrument of the Holy Spirit being used to deliver the Word of God to open the ears and bring life were there is death…Ex Nihilo…De la Nada!
B.B. Dang via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/18/21
The book Luther's Outlaw God Vol 1 is very dense and not intuitive reading for a layperson like me. Dr. Paulson and Caleb provide helpful explanations and analogies for the book's most difficult concepts.Read full review »

Dr. Paulson is really easy on the ears.
Lily K @@ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/07/21
A wonderful podcast with my former teacher Steven Paulson!
gf RTV ch via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/13/21
Martin Luther caught the radical nature of Paul’s gospel and Steven Paulson tracks with Luther and Paul like no other theologian living. If you want to go on an adventurous romp through church history and the expanse of Christian theology that takes you back to the beginning, which is the cross,...Read full review »

I wish every American Evangelical and Lutheran for that matter could hear what Steve Paulson has to say
aaron57248 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/25/21
Wow. Just discovered this podcast and wish I had a year ago when it started up. I’ve been following 1517 for a few years and really appreciate their deep yet accessible Gospel-centered biblical teaching. This podcast is no exception. I’m only two episodes in and already addicted. There are...Read full review »

Mark chapter 4 episode was wonderful! So thankful for a God who preaches absolution. This podcast fills me and challenges me every week. I was raised evangelical, but I think I was missing things from confusion from the world. Thanks guys!
A. Spangler via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/29/21
Great content but the recording superimposed the conversation on top of itself. Maybe see if that can be cured.
NoLifeMama via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/04/21
This is one of the most confounding shows I listen to while still being wonderfully understandable and freeing. Paulson is an elegant wordsmith doing intellectual gymnastics for us, making sense of Scripture’s complexities through the heart-warming and comically crass thoughts that only Martin...Read full review »
The Inklings 2.0 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/21/20
This is the most clear podcast out there if you really want to understand how and where Luther diverged from, not only Medieval Church thought at his time, but from all philosophers ever. As shocking as that may sound, from the Bhagavad Gita to Athens, the idea that natural law can make one...Read full review »

Thank you for this series. While not necessarily for those without any background, it’s great for exploring Luther’s theology in a more detailed fashion.

This podcast changes my life each week. I’m learning about my addiction to the law and how Christ sets me free. Thank you.
secondmountain via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/28/20
As a recovering evangelical that used to look down upon Lutherans I am amazed at the insights into the nature of God and the scriptures that Dr. Paulson so clearly explains. Incredible podcast. And oh yes, I repent of my former snobbishness. The teachings of Luther have been life changing!
JoyfullyRedeemed via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/22/20
I love this podcast. Steven Paulson delivers the ideas so well. Truly our God is God Most High.

A rock in a dry and thirsty land. So very enlightening.
s&l listeners via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/13/20
I’ve listened to podcasts for decades and generally, you get good stuff, but its mostly snack sized - content that once the pod ends, you can take or leave. That’s the general nature of podcasting for you. Here is a unique experience where serious theological content is made accessible through...Read full review »
Malcolm 918 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/12/20
Paulson cuts through all the garbage. It is all about the proclamation, not trying to convince a free will. All the power and action of salvation is comes from God. He is God and we are not!

Shedding light where there’s darkness. Thanks. Keep ‘em comming.
Tellef A. G. via Apple Podcasts · Norway · 09/25/20
Really?! This is sad to see/hear. The christology/theology of Steven Paulson in regards to the atonement is problematic for sure.... :\

I have not been a church going person for my entire adult life. I am a devout believer in God and Jesus, as well as the Holy Spirit. I was made aware of God in a particularly intense spiritual encounter with Satan. Since this day I have followed Him. He shows me all I know of Him with the Holy...Read full review »

This podcast is opening my eyes to the richness of Lutheran thought.This comes as a shock to my “reformed” theology. I highly recommend this discussion to all who love Jesus Christ.
Charles 1549 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/12/20
I learn something new and valuable every time I listen to this podcast. It answers tons of questions that I’ve never thought of asking. I can’t thank God enough for it.
rbb68 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/27/20
Steven Paulson cuts through all of the noise filling my ears from a life lived in the church...noise of performance, bait and switch, and confused interpretations of Scripture...essentially the deafening noise of the law. He brings the clarity of the distinction between law and gospel, and he...Read full review »

It’s provocative, it’s practical, it preaches.
mparra2000 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/24/20
Re: theology. This podcast with Steven Paulson has helped me get into most of the current conversations in Lutheran theology in a productive but critical way. If you ever hear people prattling on about Gerhard Forde and how evil or heretical he is (and how evil Paulson is by extension) and are...Read full review »
chi-rho via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/17/20
This podcast wrestles with questions about the Gospel and how it's preached to God's people. Uses Martin Luther and his wrestling with the same questions as a framework for discussion. The good news proclaimed in this podcast is a balm for my weary soul.Read full review »
JRipke via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/03/20
This podcast is currently my favorite. I’ve listened to all of them more than once. Especially this last episode when they explain where to find God.
JJM54321 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/23/20
This podcast is doing something for me that I haven’t experienced for years. I remember when I began studying theology which led me to attend seminary. I remember being astounded by the counterintuitive Lutheran take on Justification, Faith, the Hidden/Revealed God, Sanctification, etc. I...Read full review »
disciple_feet via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/17/20
This is a great podcast because any time I get a chance to hear Dr. Paulsen is sublime. But Caleb’s untimely interruptions generally provoke an uncharitable response that is clearly sinful. At the end of the day, Dr. Paulsen’s gracious words are decisive. Thank you!
ramtuf87 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/15/20
What a gift to have this combination of history, scripture, theology, and apologetics available! Praise be to the God, that God is an outlaw!
reluctant.preacher via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/13/20
This podcast is another excellent podcast from 1517.org. The podcasts are so insightful and thoughtful that I have to listen to each one multiple times.
CO_john_ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/09/20
A lot of material, much of it quite dense, presented in an accessible and engaging manner
iTunesafficianado via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/04/20
Enjoyed Steve Paulson in Seminary as a Professor, and now on the Podcast! Outlaw God has inspired me with a renewed sense of purpose as a preacher, and reminded me that it is an honor to speak God's word to people that need to hear the Gospel. Preaching is a task that I do not take lightly....Read full review »

So much “meat” here. Have listened to the first 3 episodes several times to take it all in. Looking forward to learning more about the outlaw God. Thank you.
macdSr via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/01/20
In depth, thoughtful, Lutheran theology! A breath of fresh air in the current landscape of the Lutheran Church in the United States. If you don’t know anything about Martin Luther or Lutheran theology this is a great place for you to understand what the reformation was and is all about!
