How are you doing—not just as a student but as a whole person? Luther Whole Life is a weekly, one-hour Zoom gathering for seminary students to pause, connect, reflect, and encourage one another as we navigate the demands of seminary and preparation for ministry. Through guided conversation, gratitude, and prayer, we’ll explore practices that support spiritual, emotional, physical, relational, and vocational well-being. This month we are focusing on spiritual health, and this week we will focus on prayer that sustains. All students are welcome. No preparation is required. We meet Wednesdays 7:30-8:30 p.m. CT on Zoom (link in email).
