FROM THE PRESIDENT’S DESK

THE BULLETIN

What Community Means at LTS As a young girl living in Chicago, I wrote a letter to Ms. Granny Brown. Granny was my paternal grandmother with whom my siblings and I would often spend summers in southern Indiana. For a city girl, it was like spending time in Mayberry, RFD. The shopkeeper knew I was Granny Brown’s granddaughter, my uncle and his family lived down the street, my aunt and her family lived around the corner, and all the church ladies wore big, beautiful hats on Sunday.

In that southern Indiana town, I was surrounded by family – a family of aunts, uncles and cousins. I was surrounded by people who knew me, cared about me and loved me through my connection with others whom they knew well.

That’s family. That’s community.

Granny was a source of wisdom and strength in times of confusion. The young girl’s letter found its way to her, just as those seeking God’s voice and the love of Jesus Christ find their way to us. God’s people.

They find their way to the church. They don’t often know or understand church protocol. They don’t often have the right words. They don’t often feel like they belong, but they show up in our churches curious about God. They show up in our churches thirsty for the living water. They show up in our churches seeking a new address. A family. A community.

I am grateful that the mission of Lexington Theological Seminary is to educate and prepare faithful clergy and leaders to lead congregations that can help people find their way to a new address. And I’m grateful that along the way, our students are building a community of their own.

That’s family. That’s community. That’s faith.

Your partner in ministry, Dr. Charisse L. Gillett, President

C

ommunity is important to Andrew Shue. He grew up in a small town in North Carolina and married his high school sweetheart, Kasey, who grew up about 10 minutes away. The church he pastors, Southwood Memorial Christian Church, is within a half-hour drive of where he grew up. However, as a nightmare unfolded for his family, Shue discovered that “community” can mean people who live hundreds – even thousands – of miles away.

Shue is a Master of Divinity student at Lexington Theological Seminary.

Although he began his career as a high school teacher, he always felt a nudge to another calling. He spoke to his pastor, who encouraged him and offered him the opportunity to preach one Sunday. After that experience, he knew he was called to parish ministry, and LTS was the best fit. It was the seminary his childhood minister, the Rev. Dr. James Daily, attended, and the mostly online M.Div. program allowed Shue to balance school, work, and family life with Kasey and their two children, Kaleigh, 7, and Gabriel, 2.

“LTS helps this balance become healthy and feasible,” Shue said. “Upon learning of the distance education component of LTS, the path was very clear.”

Shue appreciated the guidance of LTS faculty and staff, noting how instrumental registrar Windy Kidd has been in helping him navigate scheduling needs. Since enrolling, he’s experienced a major job change (leaving his teaching duties to be a full-time pastor), and the birth of their son. However, it was during his second

In that moment, I knew God was with us, as well as the support of people from all over the U.S. – Andrew Shue round of intensives, the on-campus portion of classes that take place for 10 days twice each year, that Shue found just how deeply the LTS connections run.

His wife called him during his third block of classes to tell him she wasn’t feeling well. Her doctor thought she was probably just tired. Shue worried about her, especially when she began to experience back pain. The night Shue returned home, he took his wife to the emergency room. She was released, but her condition would deteriorate over the next week, and by the time the couple made four trips to the ER, she was unable to use her arms and legs and was beginning to experience facial weakness.

Several hours later, they would have a diagnosis: a rare autoimmune disorder, Guillain-Barre Syndrome. Just a couple of weeks later, Shue remembers one of the most difficult moments of their lives.

“On February 12, 2016, my wife stopped breathing in her hospital room. In that moment, I knew God was with us as well as the support from people all over the U.S.,” Shue said. Kidd as well as other LTS staff, his professors and classmates

Kasey Shue would utlimately spend three months in the hospital, and when she returned home, she was unable to feed or care for herself. Shue’s sole focus became helping his wife to recover. His mother moved in with them to help care for the children, and Shue needed to pause his studies at LTS for a full six months.

“The professors went above and beyond to work with me,” Shue said. “I was able to resume my studies during the summer, and LTS continued to show support. I was welcomed back with remarkable compassion.”

With physical therapy several times a week, Kasey was able to battle back to health and was on her feet again by June.

Several months later, she continues to experience pain and fatigue, but Shue is amazed by her recovery.

Presidential Scholar Named The Presidential Scholarship is awarded each year to a student who has the intellectual capacity and gifts for ministry to lead God’s church. Presidential scholars are selected based upon their previous academic performance, letters of recommendations, and exceptional promise for a future in congregational ministry. This year’s presidential scholar is Cecilia Sheahan. Sheahan is an M.Div. student from the Church of the Savior (United Church of Christ) in Knoxville, Tenn.

Pettyjohn Receives McCaw Scholarship M.Div. student Pamela Pettyjohn was one of two Disciples chosen by the College of Regional Ministers to receive the John and Maxine MCCaw Scholarship for Prophetic Living, Preaching, and Teaching.

The scholarship, held in trust at the Christian Church Foundation and administered by the College of Regional

The experience cemented Shue’s connections with his LTS family.

reached out during those frightening hours and beyond, enveloping the family in support. “Words cannot express the level of appreciation I have for LTS. This is not just a seminary. It is more like a family,” Shue said.

“Although the Seminary utilizes distance education, my relationships with fellow students and professors are much stronger than such relationships I had at a traditional university,” Shue said.

Shue plans to graduate in 2018, continue in parish ministry and possibly pursue a doctoral degree.

“I will always be a lifelong supporter of LTS and encourage everyone seeking a seminary education to attend. Everyone should have an opportunity to experience a community of support like what exists at LTS,” he said.

Ministers, was created by the McCaws in 2012 to encourage a “prophetic” voice from the pulpit that seeks to eliminate evil and enhance goodness in human relations and in international relations.

Dr. McCaw says that the pulpit must be informed, alert, emboldened and fearless, and this scholarship provides resources to help ease any educational debt for future preachers.

Webster Keynotes Florida Disciples Women’s Retreat M.Div. student Donna Webster, of Radford, Va., and Director of Disciples Women for the Virginia Region, was the keynote speaker for the Fall Florida Disciples Women Retreat at Florida’s Retreat Center in Silver Springs, Fla. The theme of the retreat was The Purpose of Sisterhood. Webster challenged participants by exploring three areas of purpose: to be fed, to learn, and to lead.

Webster led a special “dinner church” on Saturday night. This new model, based on the meals shared by early Christians, includes songs, communion and an informal sermon. Participants work

LTS President Named to In Trust Board of Directors LTS President Charisse L. Gillett was recently elected to the board of directors of the In Trust Center for Theological Schools.

The In Trust Center for Theological Schools is a membership organization that strengthens the governance and institutional capacity of theological schools, promotes their health, and facilitates their renewal through resource consulting, education, and publications.

Schade Installed as Assistant Professor of Preaching and Worship Lexington Theological Seminary celebrated the installation of the Rev. Dr. Leah Schade as Assistant Professor of Preaching and Worship. She was installed at a Jan. 28 chapel service at LTS. The. Rev.

Gillett; Vice President for Academic Affairs, Dean and Professor of Hebrew Bible Richard D. Weis; Trustee William McDonald; faculty members Dr. Emily Askew, Dr. Barbara Blodgett, and Dr. Jerry Sumney; and LTS students Anthony DeLucia, M.Div., and the Rev. Stephanie Moon, D.Min.

She is an experienced pastor, author, and professional harpist. Schade and her husband, Jim, live in Lexington, with their children, Rachel and Benjamin.

Seminary Hosts ‘Teach In’

Sumney Leads Text Studies

A full house and a number of online participants took part in a teach-in offered by LTS faculty the afternoon of Jan. 20, following the presidential inauguration, to “foster a discussion on how Christians who are concerned with justice and goodwill should live out their faith in the current political environment.”

Dr. Jerry Sumney, Professor of Biblical Studies, led the pastors of the Presbytery of Cincinnati in a study of a Lenten lectionary text in March. The following day, he led the District 9 ministers of Kentucky in a study of the Easter text of Matthew.

Topics presented included:

In April, he will give Barton College’s Purcell Bible Conference Lecture at the North Carolina regional assembly. Dr. Sumney will also be a presenter at a distance education study group at the Christian Scholars Conference in June in Nashville.

• Debunking Fake News Opening presentations by: Richard Weis – insights from the OT prophets Leah Schade – The Church’s Role in the Age of Disintegrationism • Constructing Hope Opening presentations by: Jerry Sumney – New Testament resources Emily Askew – theological resources for putting hope into practice • Being the Change Barbara Blodgett – a range of ways to be involved in social change Charisse Gillett – leading a congregation in these times Faculty also provided handouts so that those in attendance could have some practical tools to use in their own contexts. The event closed with prayer.

Schade Launches New Project The Rev. Dr. Leah Schade, Assistant Professor of Preaching and Worship, launched an online questionnaire as part of a research project regarding how Mainline Protestant preachers serving congregations in the United States handle sermons on controversial justice issues. The project, titled “Preaching in the Purple Zone: Homiletics in the Red/ Blue Divide,” aims to establish both scriptural and theological rationale and authorization for addressing contentious issues. The goal is to encourage and equip pastors and congregations to address vital justice issues during this challenging time in our nation.

Gillett Keynotes Christmount Workshop Dr. Gillett served as the keynote speaker at the annual workshop at Christmont Camp at Black Mountain, N.C., for elders and deacons in early March.

The workshop was co-sponsored by Christmont and LTS. The Elders and Deacons Workshop offers church leaders intense training for these two vital lay ministries of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).

Faculty Serving on ATS Group Drs. Blodgett, Sumney and Dean Weis are serving as members of an Association of Theological Schools(ATS) working group on how to do formation in an online context. The working group will be meeting in Pittsburg at ATS headquarters in April.
