It's a common occurrence and one that can only be overcome with difficulty. You are to be commended for seeking the dialogue despite the difficulty. <br /><br />+HRCPr. H.

However, it COULD become such a thing. The theology faculty is still very distinctively Lutheran. The vast majority of professors (even if we don't always agree) desire CUNE to be a Lutheran, Christian university. The doctrine of vocation has become the center point of the ethos of the curriculum. There will be many fine, Lutheran business owners because of CUNE in addition to pastors, teachers, etc. That's the simple reality of where we are. <br /><br />2. Evening Prayer and many chapel services are a blessing to all who attend.Matthias Flaciushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16694173538247881415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778905687600416321.post-3739824721821270042010-07-21T09:18:17.502-05:002010-07-21T09:18:17.502-05:00As one who grew up inside the divine hokiness, I h...As one who grew up inside the divine hokiness, I have an absolute seething disdain for it. It left me a depressed agnostic in my early twenties. Thanks be to God that a bearded seminarian brought me the Gospel. It still perplexes me how born and bread LCMSers are willing to swap the liturgy for happy-clappy fluff. They have no idea the damage inflicted upon the children. I thank God that mine will never suffer as I did.<br /><br />Jason HullUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06808091516353290877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778905687600416321.post-78640629508048896922010-07-21T09:11:53.849-05:002010-07-21T09:11:53.849-05:00Fr.

What do these pastors think their job is? They don't teach confirmation, they don't "plan worship," they hire a retired guy to do the shut in calls...truly, they have a completely different view of the Ministry.<br /><br />+HRCPr. H.

In fact, I remember an encounter in my 'theology of worship' class my junior year. The instructor was teaching us real Lutheran worship theology. One of the female DCE students, who was also a singer in Route 66, fought with this prof every day because she had no idea that there was a right and wrong way to think about worship. Those were the days.Rev.

This is what we get for turning our college into just another midwest private school that must fund itself by appealing to everyone. If we actually fully supported institutions for the purpose of training men to serve the Church - that would be swell. <br /><br />Nevertheless, shouldn't a Lutheran college be about instilling Lutheranism instead of acquiescing to American Evangelicalism? Yes, I know this is a lot to hope for.<br /><br />2.
