A Critique Of Theological Education In The Light Of Changing American Culture, David S. Schuller
A Critique Of Theological Education In The Light Of Changing American Culture, David S. Schuller
Concordia Theological Monthly
The more critical the situation faced by a ministry, the more intense has been its criticism of conventional theological education. Where the patterns of cultural change have been least severe, the conventional shape of ministerial training has been most successful. Turning to the areas of greatest change we find the most demanding tests that can be addressed to contemporary theological education. Moreover, such areas should prove most predictive of the types of change we can look for in the future.

The Fieldwork Program At Concordia Seminary, Kenneth H. Breimeier
Concordia Theological Monthly
In a sense, there has always been fieldwork at Concordia Seminary. Ever since the beginning of the school, students have been preaching, teaching, and generally exercising the skills of the pastoral ministry. In another sense, the beginning of the fieldwork program might be reckoned from the inauguration of the required year of vicarage, or internship. In the early 1930s Synod asked the class that would have returned for its senior year to stay out for one year to work in the parish.
