In this devotion, Carol Seilhymer ’16 M.Div., considers the invitation of this hymn and why we tend to make God’s mercy smaller than it is. Read today’s God Pause.

With the exception of Sunday, RFS classes start every day at 8 a.m., not at any other times you might have seen on various web platforms and/or in syllabi. Any questions about class times this can be directed to the Academic Dean’s office, academicdean@luthersem.edu.

Do you come from a fundamentalist or evangelical background? Have you had to deconstruct and reconstruct your faith? This is the group for you! We’ll be holding an interest meeting on Zoom (link in email) on Friday, October 2 at 11 a.m. CT. Our first meeting will be mostly introductions, but think about these questions ahead of time: What does a deconstructed or reconstructed faith look like to you? What has your journey been like? This group is meant to be a safe space for folks to talk about our faith stories and how they’ve changed—or not changed—throughout our lives. For more information, contact Joellen Barak at jbarak001@luthersem.edu.

In this devotion, Carol Seilhymer ’16 M.Div., prays that we might avoid keeping score and instead learn to rejoice in God’s mercy. Read today’s God Pause.
