Episode 10: Featuring guest Jim Boggs
What does this mean? It’s a question that opens the door to exploring the basic teachings of Scripture—one step at a time.
In this episode of Faith Footnotes, we explore What Does This Mean? Exploring Our Christian Faith by Charles Degner, a devotional resource built around 364 Catechism questions and designed to spark meaningful conversations at home. Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, couple, or single adult, this book helps bring God’s Word into your daily routine—in a way that’s approachable, thoughtful, and rooted in grace.
Our guest, Jim Boggs, Youth and Family Minister at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Lannon, Wisconsin, shares how the book has helped families of all kinds grow in faith together, why small and consistent devotions matter, and how even one question can open the door to lifelong spiritual habits. You’ll hear encouragement for new and experienced faith leaders alike—including those who never thought of themselves that way.
If you’ve ever wondered how to bring faith into your home in a natural, lasting way, this episode offers gospel-centered wisdom, practical encouragement, and a reminder that working through common questions of faith can help form a strong spiritual foundation—at any stage of life.
