The Other Lutherans: Voices from the Global South – Dr. Leo Sánchez and Dr. Samuel Deressa

Tangible: Theology Learned and Lived explores the ways in which theology permeates all aspects of life. Through conversations with the faculty of Concordia Seminary, we will challenge you to deepen your theology and live out your faith in Christ. Jessica Bordeleau talks with a variety of guests on a variety of topics, but all point to the intersection of faith and daily life. It’s tangible: theology learned and lived.

“The Lutheran church in Ethiopia is just under three times larger than all the Lutheran church bodies in America combined,” said Dr. Samuel Deressa, Associate Professor of Theology and the Global South at Concordia University, St. Paul. “We can learn from each other to address and apply Lutheran theology in different contexts,” said Deressa. He asked, “How can we embrace this diversity and move towards a multicultural and multiethnic kind of church?” Join Deressa and Dr. Leo Sánchez, Professor of Systematic Theology at Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, in a conversation about Lutheranism in the Global South.
