Preaching Seminars

University Lutheran Chapel has a longstanding tradition of service to the Church at large. As part of this service, we sponsor events and study groups just for pastors.

Lenten workshops are held each year to help pastors prepare their midweek homily series. Led by outstanding theologians of the Lutheran Church, these workshops not only provide a framework for timely and meaningful seasonal preaching, but also help pastors to continue growing in their knowledge of exegesis, homiletics, and liturgics.

Patristics Study Group

ULC hosts a monthly study group for pastors at which we read and discuss the writings of the Early Church fathers. Patristics meets the third Monday of each month at 10:30 a.m., and provides a wonderful forum for the discussion of theological issues past and present. Guest speakers are occasionally invited to give a presentation in their field of study. Recent guest presenters have included Dr. Oliver Olsen and Dr. Jim Nestingen. Our topic for 2011-12 is Patristic Exegesis. Interested lay people are welcome to join us too!

2011-2012 Schedule and Readings

All sessions are on the third Monday of the month and are held at University Lutheran Chapel, 1101 University Avenue SE, Minneapolis. Sessions begin at 10:30 a.m. with Matins.
