Ministry Matters Session 4 focuses on inclusivity and the church. Pastor Jeni Grangaard will moderate a question and answer session with Nadia Bolz-Weber about how the church addresses or misses the goal of inclusivity especially for the LGBTQIA+ community.
Ministry Matters is a student led six-month series for Christian public leaders to learn about the LGBTQIA+ community, its unique spiritual past, and the amazing opportunities ministry holds for the community. Each session is 90 minutes and will focus on a key topic/issue.

How someone rates their financial situation, in most cases, has less to do with their financial situation and more with their emotional relationship with money. Financial anxiety is a part of this. The Stewardship Leaders Program will be exploring this topic with financial therapist Lindsay Bryan-Podvin who specializes in the area of financial anxiety.
Questions? Contact Arlene Flancher (aflancher001@luthersem.edu) or Grace Pomroy (gpomroy001@luthersem.edu) from the Stewardship Leaders Program.
