So, I took the back off and tested the temperature sensor. It was around 1174 ohms at room temperature. After looking at a few videos, the range should be between 1100-1200 ohms.
Back to square one.

Hello everyone--
My wife was complaining that the oven didn't seem to be baking.
The oven would work for a while and shut off. I did a bit of research, and I replaced the igniter on the oven, as I find some information that it was some sort of thermal couple.
Anyway, that didn't fix the problem, especially since I realized that the broiler is doing the exact same thing.
The oven will turn on instantly, and it will starting heating up. It will run for a minute or two. Then, it will shut off. After 30 seconds, it will restart and burn for a while. It will eventually stay off. The oven always "thinks" it is working; the control panel says that it is baking or broiling.
I am wondering what my next steps would be. It doesn't seem like an issue with the gas regulator; it seems like a temperature sensor or control board.
Any ideas? Would like to narrow it down before dropping $$$$ on a control board.
