Want to share something in an upcoming edition of Inside Luther News, the seminary’s internal e-newsletter? Send your announcement to communic@luthersem.edu. Submit items for the July edition by Wednesday, June 10. Inside Luther News content is meant to be somewhat broader in scope—seasonal announcements, monthly reminders, stories about recent events or news of upcoming projects—than the daily Community Announcements posts and emails.

In this devotion, Paul H. Moessner ’04 D.Min., considers the difference between removing an oppressive ruler and establishing true freedom. Read today’s God Pause.

All are welcome to join this on-campus retreat for a time of learning more about Luther Seminary’s approach to diversity, equity, and inclusion called ABIDE—centered around our common commitments of accountability, belonging, inclusion, diversity, and equity. We will listen carefully to one another, celebrate the great work happening in our community, and spend time refocusing and reenergizing this work. This retreat is for those who have been engaged in ABIDE work to reconnect with one another as well as an opportunity for those new to this kind of work to engage the community’s approach. Direct any questions you might have to: abide@luthersem.edu. Snacks and lunch will be provided. Register here (with your seminary email) if you plan to attend so we can ensure adequate space and refreshments for all. The deadline to register is Monday, June 1.
