As one raised in the LCMS and a longtime inquirer into the Orthodox Church I looked forward to this series of interviews with much anticipation. I had been searching a long time for ANY concrete/official writings from the Lutheran side of the street in regards to the Orthodox Church, but to no avail. Anyhow, what a disgrace these interviews were. I spent a few years in Russia and even I knew what Pastor Webber was saying was patently wrong. Not to be rude, but I found myself wondering if he'd been living under a proverbial Lutheran rock the whole time he was in the Ukraine. But the gall of Issues, Etc. to pass this off as something "official" and "scholarly" was truly ripe. I really had enjoy listening to Issues, Etc. on my iPOD, but after that bunch of bolony I deleted the podcast for good. Sorry. Maybe next time they should bring in an Orthodox priest and have a REAL dialogue.
