Luther On The Hidden God, Steven D. Paulson
Luther On The Hidden God, Steven D. Paulson
Faculty Publications
It is not so much that God cannot be seen that concerns Luther, but that God actually and actively hides. God hides in order not to be found where humans want to find God. But God also hides in order to be found where God wills to be found.
No Trinity, No Mission: The Apostolic Difference Of Revisioning The Trinity, Gary M. Simpson
No Trinity, No Mission: The Apostolic Difference Of Revisioning The Trinity, Gary M. Simpson
Faculty Publications
Moral and experiential monotheism, twin bequests of the enlightenment, have robbed recent doctrines of God of an essential apostolic difference. A revisioned formulation of the Trinity will provide good news for the modern world.

Eucharistic Symbolism In The Gospel Of John, David E. Fredrickson
Eucharistic Symbolism In The Gospel Of John, David E. Fredrickson
Faculty Publications
A metaphorical reading of eating Jesus’ flesh in John 6 is insufficient. It keeps the reader from seeing the connection between Jesus’ self-giving and his divinity; it does not reckon with the communication of divinity to communicants; it does not allow for our participation in the life of God through the ascent of the incarnate Word.

Resurrection And The New Age, Patrick R. Keifert
Resurrection And The New Age, Patrick R. Keifert
Faculty Publications
As as a general indicator of developing religious sensibilities in American culture, the New Age bears continued Christian interest. It remains, at the very least, a very important resource for understanding trends in American culture and for identifying opportunities for Christian theology and mission. Among these opportunities that New Age movements provide for Christian theology and mission is the opportunity to address religious and metaphysical questions which for many years have been of little interest to a general audience. These metaphysical questions include popular discussion of cosmology, ontology, God, the soul, free will, and a renewed interest in religious experience.
Ministry, Management, And The Ecumenical Movement, Gary M. Simpson
Ministry, Management, And The Ecumenical Movement, Gary M. Simpson
Faculty Publications
The ecumenical movement in contemporary America should not be surprised to find itself in a quandary of questions regarding the "ministry” of the gospel. From the first decades following the ascension of Jesus until the present the whole complex of emerging questions of ministry have been intimately bound up with society-wide crises of authority. While it is nearly impossible to sort out the myriad questions regarding ministry that have arisen in the American context, one factor in particular has and, if left unchecked, will continue to subvert the ministry of the gospel: a society-wide managerial mode of authority. It has …
A Public Ministry By All The Baptized?, Patrick R. Keifert
A Public Ministry By All The Baptized?, Patrick R. Keifert
Faculty Publications
Any discussion of the ministry of the baptized eventually reaches a point where someone asks, “If all the baptized are ministers, then why and how do we distinguish between the ministry of clergy and laity?” One promising answer begins, “The clergy have a public ministry....” The unspoken half of that answer, seldom said, but powerfully lived out in contemporary capitalistic cultures is, “The laity’s ministry is private.” This response constricts the scope of the gospel and plays into the contemporary gulf between the public and private dimensions of our lives.

Labor Room Or Morgue: The Power And Limits Of Pluralism And Christology, Patrick R. Keifert
Labor Room Or Morgue: The Power And Limits Of Pluralism And Christology, Patrick R. Keifert
Faculty Publications
Professor Wilson is right, “Christological reflection is crossing a threshold...entering an unfamiliar room.” My response focuses his point by posing a question and proposing an answer. Is this new room a labor room or a morgue? Will christological reflection in this room labor and give birth to a new and vibrant orthodoxy and orthopraxis? Or will it die shy and embarrassed for lack of moral and spiritual fortitude, or intellectual and practical wisdom? The answer to the question of morgue or labor room lies in marking the powers and limits of christology and pluralism.
