The Style And The Mission, John H. Tietjen Dec 1970

The Style And The Mission, John H. Tietjen

Concordia Theological Monthly

Today I set out on an adventure. I invite you to come along. The adventure is the Easter quarter experiment. It's called "'Style of Life in God: Mission in Community." My assignment this morning is to introduce the style and the mission. Let's be frank: my task is to motivate you to participate. The result I hope t0 achieve by this address is to elicit from you a commitment to take part in the experiment. I am happy for the assignment. I intend to participate and hope you will, too.


Life In The Spirit Today, Ewald Bash Dec 1970

Life In The Spirit Today, Ewald Bash

Concordia Theological Monthly

In many ways nothing seems stranger than this moment to me-to be found in these circumstances talking about spirituality. In the years since the writing of Seven Days I have become engaged in almost constant activity. Those who live with me in the building at headquarters of The American Lutheran Church, I rather imagine, would be somewhat shocked to see me standing here; they don't regard me as a contemplative man, and I would be a phony if I came to you and pretended I was some sort of spiritual giant. Many times I have been lost, foundering at the …


Sharing The Body In The Body, Arthur Simon Dec 1970

Sharing The Body In The Body, Arthur Simon

Concordia Theological Monthly

I have little to share with you on the Eucharist and the Christian life other than my own odyssey in this respect, so let me be frankly biographical. What I have learned about the holy meal and the holy life cannot be separated from the agonies and joys of those who have shared the way of Jesus with me, so I am indebted especially to the people of my parish, including, and above all, my colleague John Puelle.


Spiritual Formation For Ministry, Eugene I. Van Antwerp Dec 1970

Spiritual Formation For Ministry, Eugene I. Van Antwerp

Concordia Theological Monthly

Dimiui Shostakovich has described his Fifth Symphony (D Major, Opus 47), composed just 30 years ago, as "the assertion of personality. It is man with all his emotions and experiences that I saw as the focus of design in this work."

Called To Service And To Seminary, David S. Schuller Dec 1970

Called To Service And To Seminary, David S. Schuller

Concordia Theological Monthly

How does it happen? On assignment day the whole world spread out before him… entering the ministry … his own group of people to shepherd … the heady challenge of a world needing both the courage of a prophet and the resounding proclamation of a gospel … the continuity of the holy Christian church. He was about to step into the procession of the Te Deum. His wife's hand squeezed his as his name was called. Not too many years later late at night he sits wondering. It hasn't turned out as he had dreamed. The opposition was more insidious, …


The Interior Warfare, Harry N. Huxhold Dec 1970

The Interior Warfare, Harry N. Huxhold

Concordia Theological Monthly

In a recent bulletin of the Academy of · Religion and Mental Health a psychiatrist quotes a Harvard junior, "Many students turn into themselves and become preoccupied with their own thoughts and emotions to the point of obsession.'' We should not be surprised. Your generation has been more sensitive to the nature of man and his interior struggle than most generations. The era of Freudian psychology and existential philosophy has exposed the depths of man's psyche to the point of nausea. It was not too long ago that we greeted the Freudian view of man as the clinical evidence of …

The Brotherly Task, Paul J. Bauermeister Dec 1970

The Brotherly Task, Paul J. Bauermeister

Concordia Theological Monthly

Between the years 1951 and 1956 I sat out there where you are with enough regularity that no one ever got overly concerned about my spiritual condition. Back in those days, it seems to me, there was less concern about the "spiritual condition" and more concern about chapel attendance. I think that's progress. During those years I sat out there I remembered thinking, frequently, that I did not want to be up here in the chancel-ever! - that the good place to be was out there-not up here. I was right; but as we say: That's my problem.

The burden of the study was an attempt to answer the general question of the church's servant attitude by answering specific questions, within the limited framework of one methodology.

The Understandings Of Pornography In The Behavioral Sciences And The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod, Paul Metzler May 1970

The Understandings Of Pornography In The Behavioral Sciences And The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod, Paul Metzler

Master of Divinity Thesis

Some further comments about the intent of this study should help clarify what I am attempting to do. I do not plan to develop a universally valid definition of pornography. My research has led me to see definition itself as one of the issues: In Chapter II where I have presented my findings from the behavorial sciences, I have indicated the attempts of various studies to develop just such a definition. Their variety and differing emphases show that one of the difficulties of dealing adequately with the phenomenon of pornography is determining what qualifies or does not qualify for that …

The Doctrine Of Man In William Golding's Lord Of The Flies, Howard W. Kramer May 1970

The Doctrine Of Man In William Golding's Lord Of The Flies, Howard W. Kramer

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

Since Lord of the Flies is so frequently found on the required reading list of English literature courses, it is to be expected that the theme of the novel is the subject of frequent discussions in literary circles and perhaps even in gatherings of much less sophisticated readers. One would, then, be inclined to examine seriously the theme of a novel as widely read and discussed as is Lord of the Flies. Since the theme of the novel involves so fundamental a concept as the doctrine of man, one may surmise that the average reader finds an unusual attraction in …


The Lectionary And The Church Year: A Study Of The Historic Lectionary Of The Western Church Leading To A Revised Gospel Lectionary, Karl Cron May 1970

The Lectionary And The Church Year: A Study Of The Historic Lectionary Of The Western Church Leading To A Revised Gospel Lectionary, Karl Cron

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

The goal of the study is to provide a modest starting point for a revised lectionary with understandable, meaningful and relevant lessons that relate to one another and that are organized in a church year pattern which is helpful to the worshiper's devotion. Of course, the lectionary itself cannot overcome the human factors of inattentiveness, lethargy, and disinterest. More than a lectionary is required to overcome these factors.


The Correlation Of Selected Malady Concepts Of Psychotherapy With Their Theological Counterparts, As Evidenced In The Pastoral Counseling Literature Of 1945-1957, Robert E. Rediehs May 1970

The Correlation Of Selected Malady Concepts Of Psychotherapy With Their Theological Counterparts, As Evidenced In The Pastoral Counseling Literature Of 1945-1957, Robert E. Rediehs

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

The basic concern of this paper is whether or not psychotherapy and theology have anything to do with each other. There is much feeling in Christian tradition about the extent to which extra-theological studies relate to theology. The present paper will not deal with the efforts which have been made to point out a dissimilarity between these fields. Rather it hypothesizes that psychotherapy and theology are, in some sense, related, and that this can be demonstrated in the terminology and meanings of pastoral counseling.

Mass Media And The Future Of Preaching, Duane Mehl Apr 1970

Mass Media And The Future Of Preaching, Duane Mehl

Concordia Theological Monthly

Contemporary electronic media threaten the stability of words, the ability of words to stay put in our culture. Since society depends on a common organization of words and word symbols for orderly function and for the transmission of tradition from generation to generation, the new media profoundly affect the very nature of our culture.
