SUMMARY:Prof Insights: Faculty-Led Workshop – Professor Hensley in Santa Fe\, NM
DESCRIPTION:The Book of Psalms and the Christ\nOur Lord often quoted the Psalms and said that they testify about Him (Luke 24:27; John 5:39). In doing so\, Jesus confirmed the psalter’s prophetic witness about Himself as Israel’s coming Messiah. In this workshop we will consider how the psalter’s arrangement contributes to the Psalms’ rich picture of Christ. We also will explore ways we hear Christ speaking as He identifies with sinners. Together\, we will join Him in prayer\, praise and thanksgiving to God. \n\n\n\n\nDr. Adam Hensley\nAssociate Professor of Exegetical Theology\nDr. Adam Hensley joined the faculty of Concordia Seminary in 2023.He previously served as professor at Australian Lutheran College (ALC) in North Adelaide\, South Australia\, Australia\, a college of the University of Divinity\, where he taught in Old Testament studies and served as dean of chapel.

SUMMARY:Lay Bible Institute
DESCRIPTION:And He Spoke Many Things to Them in Parables\nThe parables of Jesus are among the most beloved passages of Scripture yet are notoriously difficult to interpret. What\, exactly\, are these parables? Are they “earthly stories with a heavenly meaning?” How should Christians read and apply them faithfully in their lives today? Join Assistant Professor of Exegetical Theology Dr. James Fickenscher as he explores what kind of stories parables are – and how Christians can faithfully read them and apply them to their lives.\n \nRegister\n

SUMMARY:Prof Insights: Faculty-Led Workshop – Professor Genter in Hays\, KS
DESCRIPTION:The Apocrypha: Origins\, Import and Use Among Lutherans\nWhile not of the same authoritative status as our canonical Old Testament\, the books known as the Apocrypha have been a treasured possession of the Church from very early times. They were widely read and cited by Lutherans from the time of Luther himself to C. F. W. Walther and beyond. This workshop offers an overview of this history and makes a case for a renewed engagement with the Apocrypha in Lutheran congregations today. The topics covered in this workshop include the origins and content of the Apocrypha\, early Christian views on the status of these books and their usage among Lutherans. \n\n\n\n\nDr. John Genter\nAssociate Professor of Exegetical Theology\nDr. John Genter joined the Concordia University\, Nebraska (CUNE)\, Seward\, Neb.\,  department of theology\, philosophy and biblical languages in 2021.

SUMMARY:Prof Insights: Faculty-Led Workshop – Professor Pietsch in Westminster\, MA
DESCRIPTION:Christian Caregiving for People Suffering with Depression and Anxiety\nToday mental health struggles affect so many people\, draining their energy and joy for life and undermining their confidence.

SUMMARY:Prof Insights: Faculty-Led Workshop – Professor Golden in Apex\, NC
DESCRIPTION:It Stands Written: The New Testament Appropriation of the Old Testament\nChrist and the apostles regularly ground their teaching upon the word of the Lord given through Moses and the prophets. While the fulfillment of prophecy is regularly cited in the New Testament\, that is not the only dynamic. At times\, the language of Old Testament texts is significantly transformed in New Testament texts. Then there are allusions and echoes of Old Testament texts within the New Testament that stop short of direction quotation yet build on the prior text. We will explore the various dynamics of the New Testament’s use of the Old Testament\, consider the Christological significance of those dynamics\, and reflect on how our interpretive practice can reflect those dynamics. \n\n\n\n\nDr. Kevin Golden\nDirector of Resident Field Education\, Associate Professor of Exegetical Theology\, and Dean of Theological Research and Publication\nDr. Kevin Golden is known as a caring\, dedicated parish pastor who has distinguished himself as a preacher and teacher. Golden served as the pastor of Village Lutheran Church in Ladue\, Mo.\, prior to joining the faculty of Concordia Seminary in 2021. Golden’s research experience includes Hosea\, biblical usage of the divine name\, Genesis 6-9\, Jonah\, the Book of the Twelve (Minor Prophets) and biblical intertextuality. \n\n\n	\n\n\n\n\nSchedule\n\n\nDAY\nTIME\n\n\nMonday\, Aug. 11\n1-4 p.m.\n\n\nTuesday\, Aug. 12\n9-11:30 a.m.\n\n\n\n1-4 p.m.\n\n\nWednesday\, Aug. 13\n9 a.m.-noon\n\n\n\n\n	Registration cost: $150\n	Registration deadline: July 28\, 2025\n	Location contact: Rev.
