1 Course Of ferings at LTS
2 MDiv/BTh/MTS On-Site Intensives (MDiv) On-site intensives are taught at the seminary in Saskatoon (or, occasionally, in another location outside Saskatoon) and require students to be present in the same room as the professor for the duration of the course. Intensive classes are one or two weeks in length, with the expectation that final assignments will be completed in the weeks immediately following the class. BL 231 Pentateuch Sept Rev. Dr. Kristine Ruffatto This course surveys the contents of the Pentateuch (Torah), its historical contexts and theological themes and traditions. It includes analysis of selected texts and streams of tradition in the Pentateuch and examination of their various theological visions of God, humanity (ancient Israel and its neighbours), and the natural world, as well as the interrelationship between them. We will read the biblical texts on their own terms, and also compare these texts with other ancient sources that shed light on their interpretation. The course provides basic knowledge of critical methodologies for studying and understanding the Pentateuch (the tools of biblical exegesis). We will consider the authorial/compositional, literary, form-critical, and redactional complexity of the Pentateuchal texts, the significance of these writings for the life and faith of ancient Israel, and their implications for contemporary people of faith. PL 215 Homiletics Nov; Feb Rev. Drs. Laura & Philip Holck mornings Preaching is about connecting our story with God s story and developing the ability to invite others into a similar experience of God s grace. We begin by exploring the connections between our own lives and biblical stories and examining how God s transforming promises are communicated through the sermon event. 2 LTS Course Offerings
3 We will explore methods for personal spiritual preparation, exegesis of biblical texts, development of sermon structure, and effective sermon performance. Through the evaluation of sermons of well-established preachers and our own relationship to biblical story, we will evaluate the preacher s expectations of the preached word and how those might differ from the expectations of God and sermon hearers. Finally, we will explore the possibility of being emptied of our own ideas and agendas to be filled with a holy message to bring a word of promise and celebration to God s people. BL 276 Gospel of Matthew 9 13 Jan Rev. Dr. William Richards & Dr. Ched Myers Earth, Fire, Wind and Water: The Elements of Destiny in the Gospel of Matthew The Gospel of Matthew is a complex early Christian writing, incorporating materials from a variety of genres: it expands the collection of sign-and-wonder stories found in Mark, and gathers great blocks of sayings similar to those of Thomas. However, Matthew also adds its own new elements to the story, from the opening genealogy of its hero to his great commission at the conclusion of its tale elements that construct an image of Jesus as a figure of Destiny. To help prepare for a year of preaching from the Year A gospel, this course works through the book s twenty-eight chapters attentive to how these primary elements earth, fire, wind, and water contribute to shaping a personal history unfolding as it has to. Tuition: $780 for credit; $500 for clergy continuing ed; $250 interest/observation Additional fees: textbooks Educational prerequisite: Bachelor s degree or equivalent MDiv-level courses can also be taken for credit in the Diaconal Ministry Certificate program. Courses taken for diaconal credit cost $550. MDiv/BTh/MTS LTS Course Offerings
4 MDiv/BTh/MTS PL 115 Intro to Liturgy Nov; Feb Rev. Eric Dyck afternoons (Part A) This course offers an overview of the development of the liturgy in the West (Roman Rite) from worship in the New Testament, the Early Church, the Middle Ages, and the situations of the reformation churches, particularly Lutheran and Anglican to present day (20th century reforms, eg. Vatican II, late 1960s, Lutheran Book of Worship, 1978, global sharing of resources, Evangelical Lutheran Worship, 2006, online resources and local printing). An historical context for worship, exploration of symbolism, ritual, text, art, and architecture helps us engage questions of contemporary worship practice for contemporary assemblies in their cultural contexts and settings. Consideration is given to the dynamic of praxis and theology in liturgy. Examination of the elements for liturgies of the Word, Eucharist, Baptism, and an introduction to pastoral rites (e.g. Confession, Anointing, Healing, blessings, funerals, marriages etc) will occur. (Part B) The second part looks at the elements of rite, liturgical style, and the Lutheran resources available for worship leaders. We will examine the classic liturgies of the paschal cycle (including historical development) and focus on liturgy as mission and how each of the parts of the Sunday liturgy (Gathering, Word, Meal, Sending) can be considered as missional. Work will continue (from autumn) with the Pastoral Rites, especially the liturgies for marriage and burial. A brief look at the daily offices, especially for the spiritual life of the pastor and appropriate corporate use, will be presented. Students will have the choice between written assignments or workshops that feature the liturgies being discussed. 4 LTS Course Offerings
5 BL 275 Romans 23 Jan 3 Feb Rev. John Gram It changed the life of St. Augustine and from its text Luther could hear angels singing. Paul s letter to the Romans has shaped the theological perspective of Christians since its first reading. This course will examine the theology of Paul as revealed in the letter, consider its historical and cultural context, and using the standard tools of interpretation, seek to let Paul s voice speak to us and shape our theological thinking. PL230/PE233 Introduction to Pastoral Care Mar TRev. Dr. Michael Nel his course will provide an in-depth study of Bowen theory and it application to church systems. It will explore the interface between Bowen theory and practical theology. Furthermore it will prepare the student to develop a personal understanding and application of practical theology.

6 MDiv/BTh/MTS Blended Intensives Blended intensives offer two options: students may take it in the classroom with the professor (normally, at the Seminary in Saskatoon) or they may join the group via live streaming from another location (e.g., their home) using a webcam and telephone. BL 224 Psalms 3 14 Oct Rev. Dr. Kristine Ruffatto This course surveys the contents of the book of Psalms, its historical contexts and religious ideas. It studies the themes and traditions of the Psalter, their significance for the life and faith of ancient Israel, their appropriation in the New Testament, and their implications for contemporary people of faith. Special attention will be given to the use of the psalms in preaching and ministry. BL228 Isaiah and the Prophets 31 Oct 10 Nov Rev. Dr. Kristine Ruffatto This introductory course explores the phenomenon of prophecy in ancient Israel as well as the themes and traditions in the prophetic books and writings of the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament), with a concentration on the book of Isaiah. It provides a framework for contemporary study of the prophetic movement, its historical contexts, its significance for the life and faith of ancient Israel, and its implications for contemporary people of faith. HL 286 Gospel of John Apr Rev. John Gram John s Gospel doesn t have its own year in the lectionary cycle, but the Fourth Gospel is woven into the fabric of the lectionary, so over the course of the three-year cycle nearly all of it is read. This course will employ critical tools to examine the history and theology of the Fourth Gospel in order to appreciate how its perspectives differ from the Synoptic tradition, enriching our experience of the Good News of Jesus Christ. Our goal will be to find ways to use the glorious variety of John s Gospel in the proclamation of that Good News. 6 LTS Course Offerings
7 Semester-Long Online These classes take place online, with little or no requirement that students be on the internet at the same time as the professor. Students can complete all or most of the work on their own schedule each week at their convenience. SA 113 Intro to Christian Theology 12 Sept 9 Dec Rev. Dr. Don Schweitzer An introduction to major themes of Christian theology: God, creation, human nature, Christ, salvation, the community of faith, and the goal of salvation history. These themes are studied in the context of issues such as the irruption of difference in terms of race, gender, sexual orientation, the impact of globalization, the ecological crises and the changing places of churches in Western societies. The overarching goal of the course is to help students interpret the Christian faith in relation to life in the contemporary world. SA 152 Intro to Christian Ethics 12 Sept 9 Dec Rev. Dr. Lynn Caldwell In this introductory course, students learn about methods for analyzing moral arguments and responding to ethical dilemmas through a study of diverse traditions in Christian ethics. Explore the roles of Scripture, tradition, reason and experience as sources for ethical discernment and develop a reflective and critical approach to naming and responding to contemporary ethical issues. MDiv/BTh/MTS Tuition: $780 for credit; $500 for clergy continuing ed; $250 interest/observation Additional fees: textbooks, $125 distance education fee (if by distance) Educational prerequisite: Bachelor s degree or equivalent MDiv-level courses can also be taken for credit in the Diaconal Ministry Certificate program. Courses taken for diaconal credit cost $550. LTS Course Offerings
8 MDiv/BTh/MTS BE 155 & 156 Early Christian Scriptures I & II 12 Sept 9 Dec; 16 Jan 13 Apr Rev. Dr. Bill Richards & Dr. Ched Myers This course invites a careful reading of all the New Testament writings, as well as some other examples of early Christian literature. The study begins by exploring the different kinds of literature early Christians wrote: letters, sayings-collections, etiologies, hymn-collections, apocalypses, and testimonies. The next set of texts for study illustrate how early Christians combined and edited such materials in shaping longer documents. Our literary concern is with appreciating the layers of meaning that have been created within the text in its present state, while our historical concern is with identifying the issues that their first Christian readers were having to face. BE 155 focuses on texts with the strongest links to Judaism (Mark, Matthew, James, the Didache, Q ). BE 156 shifts the focus to those texts which more explicitly address a Gentile audience (Paul, John, Luke-Acts). SA 214 Christology 16 Jan 13 Apr Rev. Dr. Don Schweitzer Beginning from the historical Jesus and drawing on contemporary critical Christologies, this course follows the development of faith in Jesus as the Christ and examines different ways of understanding his saving significance in different contexts. The goal is to equip students to develop and articulate their own Christology in a way that is authentic to the Christian tradition, their own experience, the experiences of others with whom they are in dialogue and the needs of communities to which the students belong. 8 LTS Course Offerings
9 On-Site Intensives (Internship) Rostered ministers are welcome to take these classes (excluding Capstone) for continuing education alongside the Internship students. PL 256 Leadership in the Parish Sept Rev. Dan Haugen There are many leadership models. This course will explore some models of leadership which can be taken into the work of ministry we share with the priesthood of all believers who all have roots and life in the broader communities in which they live, work and play. As followers of Jesus, there are other challenging perspectives to consider in leadership. Some of these perspectives are quite counter-culture to our time, but may indeed have much to offer that can be like good salt or light for any leadership model and role. However, if we have no clear vision of purpose, leadership of any model has nowhere to go (or anywhere to go). Leadership can be taken in many directions. Leadership can move in directions that confuse and destroy. Leadership can move in directions which are life giving. One of the significant differences in Christian leadership is the need to consider what it means to be under a commission. The Christian leader is called as one who serves God. Leadership takes on qualities of being a follower. Does that limit leadership or make it more dynamic? And since we are talking about leadership in the parish we will take time to look at the Letter of Call and the life of the Church with some of the practical knowledge and skills that must be consciously developed, from stewardship of time, parish logistics, and ways to enjoy the call and the people we serve. Tuition: $780 for credit; $500 for clergy continuing ed Additional fees: textbooks Internship/Continuing Ed. LTS Course Offerings
10 Internship/Continuing Ed. PL 260 Christian Ed: Faith Formation Sept, Nov Rev. Dr. James Hendricksen This course will explore the nature, purpose and practice of faith formation and Christian education from both theoretical and practical perspectives. Students will engage in exploring the educational relations between vision and practice, content and context, methods and learners, faith and life as experienced in the context of congregational ministry. BL229 Hosea Nov Rev. Dan Haugen The prophet Hosea took his message to the northern kingdom of Israel in the eighth century BCE. The challenging and sobering message of the prophet is sketched under the image of the harlot. The faithlessness experienced within the relationship of the prophet s home was a parable expression of the life of the nation. The consequences of faithlessness in the life of the nation are traced in the prophet s analyses to its impact on the social, religious, political and economic life of the nation of Israel. Overshadowing the faithless nation is the God who had called these people to be a nation, blessed to be a blessing. Through the message of the prophet, the steadfast love of God wrestles with faithlessness and longs to see life restored for the nation so deeply loved. The harlotry image has normally been viewed as a sexual motif. This course will explore the message of Hosea under the image of harlotry as a materialistic motif. The harlot loves her hire, represented in the grain and the oil, flax and wool, the material needs and securities of life. The prophet says, there is no knowledge of God in the land. The alternative was found in harlotry. Finally, we will explore the image and the message of the prophet as we examine the world in which we live. This might assist us in our homiletical task and to inform our ministry where we are commissioned to share the redeeming work and the love of God for the struggling world. 10 LTS Course Offerings
11 SA 340 The Holy Spirit Feb Rev. Dr. Don Schweitzer The earliest testimonies to the Holy Spirit in the biblical traditions describe an elusive, mysterious presence that strengthened, renewed and saved life not subject to human control. It could endanger life. As Jewish and Christian traditions developed fuller understandings of God s Spirit, they continued to affirm its elusive and mysterious dimensions, partly because of the diversity of the gifts of the Spirit and the ways it can be present. The Holy Spirit is one. The biblical traditions do not describe it as always present in the same way. The gifts of the Spirit can also vary greatly. The Spirit gives peace and joy. Yet it may also be present in anger and sorrow. Objectives =Introduce = students to the scope of the work of the Holy Spirit and its nature as understood in the Biblical traditions and contemporary theology =Acquaint = students with historic understandings of the Holy Spirit =Help = students develop their own understanding of the Holy Spirit, in dialogue with the Biblical traditions, contemporary theology and their own experience CL 399 Capstone Course Apr Rev. Drs. Cam Harder, Michael Nel, & Kristine Ruffatto This course aims to help students integrate their experience of ministry in the parish and in para-church organizations with the theology and theory they have taken in previous seminary training. Drawing on resources from several disciplines, it analyzes case studies from internship and other sources. The course examines non-traditional options for rostered ministry and will help students to prepare for first call. Conducted primarily as a seminar, the course requires deep and thoughtful participation by all students. Internship/Continuing Ed. LTS Course Offerings
12 On-Site Intensives (DMin) The DMin program is for clergy who are interested in engaging their communities more effectively, bringing their gifts into stronger partnership with community groups and institutions. Other clergy are invited to take these classes even when not formally enrolled in the program. IU 605 Foundations for Rural Ministry & Community Sept Rev. Dr. Cam Harder This course will examine community demographics, economics and culture in stressed communities, particularly rural ones. It will explore theological and theoretical models for ministry that builds health and resilience in the surrounding community. And it will introduce students to tools for church-initiated community development, based on those models. IU777 Capstone Course TBD Tuition: $1000 Educational prerequisite: MDiv or equivalent 9 13 Jan IU781 Qualitative Research Methods Spring Dr. Lynn Caldwell This course will focus on critical issues, questions, and decisions involved in designing and carrying out qualitative research projects in rural contexts. The focus will be on engaging students with information about qualitative research in a broad sense, as well as with questions and resources particular to their own identified research interests and contexts. Specific methods for community-based research will be presented and a researcher s roles and responsibilities in selecting appropriate methods will be discussed. Attention will be given to critical questions about data generation, collaboration with and reporting to community members and research participants, and interpretation of research materials and experiences.
