In this devotion, Roger Haug ’75 M.Div. reflects on Jesus’ call to renew our focus on what’s ahead. Read today’s God Pause.

We invite you to celebrate and thank Rachel Postler for her work as project manager for the Festival of Homiletics. Her last day at Luther Seminary will be June 30. Rachel’s organization, leadership, and team-building has been integral to bringing the Festival into a new, post-Covid era. Her ability to listen deeply with a pastoral presence while also holding firm boundaries to move projects forward at a steady pace will be missed! 

Students, faculty, and staff are invited to join us Wednesday, August 6 for an opportunity to experience the agricultural rural gathering Farmfest in Morgan, in southwestern Minnesota. We will leave at 7 a.m. in a van whose cost is covered by rural ministry grants. Tickets for participants from the seminary will also be covered. Morgan is a few hours from campus. We will arrive at the fest around 9:30 a.m. This is an opportunity to learn about the economics, politics, and lifestyles of rural and small-town people in this part of the midwest. There is room for five people in the van. People in the surrounding areas might want to join us as well and meet up at the festival. Learn more on the Farmfest website. Reach out to Jon Anderson, janderson008@luthersem.edu, with any questions.
