Luther Colloquy - LUTHER GOES TO SEMINARY
Advertisement
Gettysburg Campus or ONLINE
In the two hundred years of the combined history of the Gettysburg and Philadelphia seminaries, the study of Luther and the Lutheran Confessions has always been at the center of their curricula but approached in differing ways and with differing emphases. Both institutions have had their share of experts in the field; both produced monumental works of scholarship; both
prepared generations of students for ministry in Lutheran contexts by lively teaching of Reformation history and theology.
But still there were differences, just as American Lutheranism as a whole has wrestled with what it meant in a changing context to have a theology rooted in Luther’s thought and anchored by confessional writings that have never ceased to have a claim on the church’s teaching. Each of the seminaries staked a claim to an understanding of Luther and his teaching; each generation of professors brought their own emphases and contexts; each
generation of students brought their own experiences to bear on what it meant to be “Lutheran” in their own time.
FEATURED PRESENTERS
Dr. Maria Erling, Dr. Karl Krueger, Dr. Tim Wengert, Dr. R. Guy Erwin
