Brave New Church

In Pennsylvania, two of the oldest Lutheran institutions in the country are undergoing a radical re-imagining of their ministry to face the challenges of today's Brave New World. On July 1 the historic institutions of The Lutheran Theological Seminaries at Gettysburg and Philadelphia closed after over 340 years of combined ministry and reopened as a new school, United Lutheran Seminary. With a new forward-thinking curriculum devoted to the practical skills demanded by today's world, a radical commitment to resetting the equation of student debt, and a creative and innovative band of leaders, United Lutheran Seminary is devoted to being a model of how we can re-imagine "church" in today's changing 21st century world.
