Church Anew—a ministry of St. Andrew Lutheran Church in Eden Prairie, Minnesota—is hosting a hybrid conference on Sunday, April 21-22. The conference theme is Renew: A Love of Scripture. Using interactive, curated talks from a gifted speaker list, the conference offers time for worship, reflection, embodied practice, and rich conversation. You will leave with a refreshed sense of your own relationship to scripture and practical tools for leading in your own community. The Luther Seminary community is invited to attend (virtually or in person) at a discounted rate—$100 off registration for the 2-day in-person conference and $50 off registration for the virtual conference. Register online and use these discount codes: in-person SEMRENEW, virtual SEMRENEWONLINE.

The Faith+Lead team wants to share a few April blog posts from Luther Seminary-affiliated people. First, an interview with Paul Daniels on genealogy, church history, and faith. Second, a post from recent Luther grad Devin Ames on the connections between his chaplain residency at Mayo Clinic and monasticism. Third, a video post on stewardship from Faith+Lead’s own Sitraka Rakotoarivelo.
