New Quest Course: “Paradoxically Lutheran”

ONLINE – The Scriptures are our source and norm for doctrine and belief. There is a clear teaching about the Trinity, the needs of humanity, and God’s plan of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. 

Our finite minds love to have a clear answer to these core doctrines. However, there are many parts of Scripture that sound as if God is saying two oppositional truths. While other systems of belief try to explain how one is right and the other wrong, Lutherans recognize that there are many times where God speaks truths that form a paradox: opposing truths that are simultaneously true.

Concordia Lutheran Seminary (CLS – Edmonton)’s Winter Quest series explores what it means to grapple with these paradoxical truths that God presents in His word.

Join CLS President, Rev. Dr. Jim Gimbel, on Tuesday evenings, November 1, 8, 15, and 22 (all before Advent begins on November 27), in person on campus (God willing) or online for an intriguing exploration of the marvelous and mysterious doctrinal core of our Lutheran paradoxes, as we celebrate being ‘Paradoxically Lutheran’.
