Augsburg Confession Article XXVII: Monastic Vows

Is it bad to want to serve the church and live in intentional Christian community? Why is it important to measure church traditions in terms of practice, rather than just in principle? Should Christians be taking vows, even if they have good intention like in serving the Church? Why do people often tend to put more value in our promises than in God's? Rev. A. Brian Flamme, pastor of Immanuel Lutheran Church in Roswell, NM, joins host Rev. Sean Smith to discuss monastic vows in Article XXVII in the Augsburg Confession.
