SUMMARY:Prof Insights: Faculty-Led Workshop: Professor Lane in Rochester\, NY
DESCRIPTION:The Epistle of James and its Importance for the Lutheran Church\nA singular concentration on Luther’s criticism of James as “an epistle of straw” has caused many to overlook the epistle as a source of Luther’s theology. A closer look at Luther’s sermons and writings\, however\, suggests that Luther’s theology was shaped by the Book of James and that Luther’s faithful reading of Scripture led his students and theological heirs to follow his biblical interpretation and to preach this disputed letter fruitfully for the church. \nThis workshop offers a study of the Book of James based on the Lutheran exegetical tradition in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. With attention to the epistle itself\, we will consider why James was important to the Lutheran church in the 16th and 17th centuries\, and why it is still important for us today. \n\n\n\n\nDr. Jason Lane\nAssociate Professor of Historical Theology\, and Director of Research\, Assessment and Academic Programming\nDr. Jason Lane is associate professor of Historical Theology and the director of research\, assessment and academic programming at Concordia Seminary\, St. Louis. His areas of interest include Martin Luther and the theology of the Lutheran Reformation\, biblical exegesis in the age of the Reformation and Lutheran Orthodoxy\, and the theology of the 19th-century Confessional Revival\, especially the works of Theodor Kliefoh. He is also the author of “Luther’s Epistle of Straw: The Voice of St. James in Reformation Preaching” (De Gruyter\, 2018). \n\n\n	\n\n\n\n\nSchedule\n\n\nDAY\nTIME\n\n\nMonday\, June 1\n1-4 p.m.\n\n\nTuesday\, June 2\n9 a.m.-4 p.m.\n\n\nWednesday\, June 3\n9 a.m.-noon\n\n\n\n\n	Registration fee: $160\n	Registration deadline: May 18\, 2026\n	Location contact: John Pingel\n	 \n	Register\n	More Workshops\n\n\nNote: The schedule is subject to change at the discretion of the workshop presenters. \n\n

SUMMARY:Prof Insights: Faculty-Led Workshop: Professor Golden in Kankakee\, IL
DESCRIPTION:What Can 8th Century B.C. Prophets Teach the 21st Century?\nSeparated by nearly three millennia and significant cultural differences\, the great prophets of the 8th century B.C. – Isaiah\, Micah\, Amos\, Hosea and Jonah – can seem a world apart. Yet the Spirit remains active in their message so that we would be strengthened in the faith. We will consider the 8th-century B.C. prophets in their original context\, compare that context to our own and apply the Word of the Lord that they delivered afresh to our own day. \n\n\n\n\nDr. Kevin Golden\nAssociate Professor of Exegetical Theology\, Dean of Ministerial Formation\, and Director of Resident Field Education\nDr. Kevin Golden is associate professor of Exegetical Theology\, dean of Ministerial Formation\, and director of Resident Field Education at Concordia Seminary\, St. Louis.

SUMMARY:Prof Insights: Faculty-Led Workshop: Professor Prieto in Irvine\, CA
DESCRIPTION:Reaching Out to Our Neighbors with the Gospel of Hope: Engaging and Learning from Our Global South Partners\nChrist commissioned His apostles to be His witnesses “to the ends of the earth\,” calling them to make disciples of all nations by baptizing and teaching (Acts 1:8; Matt. 28:19–20). For centuries\, going abroad has been a central mission endeavor of the Christian church — and The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) continues to faithfully participate in that global mission. However\, shifting immigration patterns have opened new doors for outreach. The U.S. itself has become a mission field\, as many immigrants arrive not only to receive the Gospel\, but also to proclaim it. These brothers and sisters from the Global South bring with them vibrant faith and a passion for sharing Christ. How\, then\, can our LCMS congregations engage in meaningful outreach alongside these mission-minded partners — reaching into the diverse neighborhoods of our own nation with the love and truth of Jesus? \n\n\n\n\nDr. Ely Prieto\nAssociate Professor of Practical Theology\, Associate Dean of Urban and Cross-Cultural Ministry\, Director of the Center for Hispanic Studies\, and Lutheran Foundation Professor of Urban and Cross-Cultural Ministry\nDr. Ely Prieto is associate professor of Practical Theology\, the Lutheran Foundation Professor of Urban and Cross-Cultural Ministry\, associate dean for Urban and Cross-Cultural Ministry and director of the Center for Hispanic Studies at Concordia\, Seminary\, St. Louis.

He was one of the editors of “O Povo de Deus (A Festschrift in Honor of Rev. Dr. Acir Raymann)” and has contributed chapters for a variety of published books\, articles\, book reviews\, homiletical and sermonic studies and sermons. \n\n\n	\n\n\n\n\nSchedule\n\n\nDAY\nTIME\n\n\nTuesday\, June 16\n1-4 p.m.\n\n\nWednesday\, June 17\n9 a.m.-4 p.m.\n\n\nThursday\, June 18\n9 a.m.-noon\n\n\n\n\n	Registration fee: $160\n	Registration deadline: June 2\, 2026\n	Location contact: Maddie Gong\n	 \n	Register\n	More Workshops\n\n\nNote: The schedule is subject to change at the discretion of the workshop presenters. \n\n
