Announcements

Faculty and staff, do you have professional news that you’d like to share with Story magazine readers? Have you recently published a book or article or presented publicly? Did you represent Luther Seminary at a conference or other event? Submit your news to communic@luthersem.edu by January 30.

Dangerous weather, safety threats, and other potential emergency situations can occur without warning any time of day and any season of the year. All members of the Luther Seminary community are urged to sign up for our text alert system to receive timely notifications of severe weather conditions and other urgent matters. Your subscription will last two years, and you should get a text from the system when it is time for you to renew.

In this devotion, Steven Nelson ’76 M.Div., reminds us that, though sin separates us from God, Jesus reconciles us to God. Read today’s God Pause.

Students, today at Mount Olivet—Thursday, January 15—we’ll have a photographer and videographer on site to capture visually some of shared community experiences in this exciting, off-campus space. You are encouraged to wear a Luther Seminary-branded shirt or other apparel on this day. Wearing something maroon and/or gray (but not branded) is great too. (Staff and faculty, you’re welcome to join in the fun too!)

In this devotion, Steven Nelson ’76 M.Div., says that our destiny is good because Jesus chooses us. Read today’s God Pause.
