In the interview with Fr. Mitch Pacwa, Tim explained that with the denominational protestant churches (Lutheran, Methodist, etc) there is no issue with recognizing Mary as the Mother of God. As the protestant churches evolved into evangelical and non-denominational churches, however, the distinction was lost. He cited Dr. Walter Martin's view as the most extreme, going so far as to dismiss God as the Eternal Father. His point was to demonstrate how once Mary is removed from the equation, it is all downhill.

How is Mrs. Don-o doing? Miss her so much!

Luther was about Christ, not worshipping Christ’s mother.
