St. Paul: From Saul of Tarsus to the Apostle of the Lutheran Reformation
Dr. James Aageson, Professor Emeritus of Religion at Concordia College, Moorhead
Apart from Jesus, Paul is arguably the most important figure in the history of Christianity. Paul and his legacy have continually shaped, fed, and challenged the church from the first century to the twenty first. Paul’s letters form the theological heart of much of the New Testament, and along with the memory of his ministry they have continued to be read, preached, theologically interpreted, and applied to contemporary ethical issues. Notably, Luther himself found deep personal solace and profound theological insight in reading Paul’s letters. As we pause to remember the 500th anniversary of the Lutheran Reformation, it is fitting that we revisit Paul and the way he has come to be interpreted and reinterpreted over the decades and centuries. This course will focus on Saul of Tarsus, Paul the Jew and follower of Christ, Paul the revered figure of the second century church, and Paul the apostle of the Lutheran Reformation. By looking at these significant stages in Paul’s journey through the life of the church, we will gain renewed understanding and appreciation for the way Paul has been interpreted in the past and continues to be reinterpreted today.

MAC CONNECT 2017
Hope for the Mountains & PrairiesOctober 21, 2017 10:00-3:00 in Billings, Montana!
Keynote Speaker, Professor Shannon Jung
"Building the Good Life for All: A Christian Mandate for Social Justice Where We Are."
Churches of whatever size are called to the same mission of "loving God and neighbor." What that means differs with context. The presentation will ask what it means to be the church where you are. Rural and smaller membership churches are more significant than ever in these days when tearing down seems so much easier than building up. And yet we are called to "build up the body of Christ." What might that mean in Montana?
Panel Discussions, Workshops & Networking Opportunities including Theological Foundations for Christian Social Ministry (Panel Discussion including Bishop Crist), Building Capacity to Dialog between Differences with Nonviolent Communication with Pastor Joel Westby, Prophetic Preaching with Pastor Steve Loy and a “Building Ecumenical Relationships for Rural Ministry Networking Event.”
Cost is $65 and includes lunch.
4 Hours Continuing Education
