Lutheran Missionary Education: Some Thoughts on Integrating Our Tradition - by the Rev. Dr. Detlev Schulz Associate Professor of Pastoral Ministry and Missions Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Ind.

The Language of the Heart -
by Amy Kashenov a missionary in the Republic of Kazakhstan located in the former Soviet Union. To communicate Christ to a person or people, you need to speak in a language they understand. To take it one step further, to most effectively share Christ in a way that impacts the listener, you should speak in the language of his heart. |

Peace for the Warrior -
by the Rev. Dr. Daniel Gard Associate Professor of Exegetical Theology Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Ind. To be a chaplain means to know the joys and sorrows, the pleasures and suffering, the courage and fears of warriors. If they are deployed to a forward position, he is deployed with them. If they face imminent attack, he faces it with them. If their lives are in danger, his life is in danger. To a chaplain who truly serves Christ, there is no being "in the rear with the gear." Where his people are, there he must be. Why? Christ must be there with them. |
