Our Faculty

Take some time to get to know some of the extraordinary individuals who make up the Luther Seminary faculty by reviewing their profiles and biographies.

They are diverse in theology, yet unified in the mission of Luther Seminary and in their belief in Jesus Christ.

They are teachers whose different teaching styles reflect the many of ways to effectively spread the gospel.

"Great are the works of the Lord, studied by all who delight in them."

Psalm 111:2

They are scholars who continually study the Word and works of God, delighting in them. Most have attained doctorates in their respective fields. They are respected as leaders in the academic community, frequent presenters at conferences and religious functions, and active members of international societies and study groups.

They are pastors who nurture the faith of their students, the future leaders of the church. They are preachers, imparting the gospel of Christ in their lectures and through Luther Seminary’s daily chapel services. Their gifts of ministry have been shared with congregations through ordained service, guest lectures and presentations, and intense reflection and conversation.

They are visionaries, dreaming of the expanded role the church will play in society and imagining new ways to reach those who have not yet heard the good news.

They are prayer partners, devoted servants, keepers of the faith, innovators, respected authors, hymn- writers and musicians.

They have been blessed by God with these gifts. They share their blessings with us.

Assistant Professor of Congregational Mission and Leadership

"As someone who grew up without knowing the Christian story, I have a deep passion for equipping leaders to tell that story in ways that touch the lives of people in our society who have not heard it."
