They discuss how Luther came to understand faith as trust in God\u2019s promise rather than a work or feeling produced within us. Through Psalm 51 and Luther\u2019s own struggle with a troubled conscience, they show how absolution comes from outside us through God\u2019s Word and gives the conscience certainty and freedom. The episode highlights how God\u2019s promise\u2014not our works, contrition, or feelings\u2014creates a joyful and free conscience.
