How are Directors of Christian Education formed at Concordia University Chicago? Dr. Debbie Arfsten (Professor of Christian Education and DCE Program Director at Concordia University Chicago), along with DCE students Nathaniel, Shanell, Joey, Rachel and Caleb, join Andy and Sarah to talk about how the students learned about the DCE role in Lutheran churches, their respective journeys to Concordia Chicago, what they’ve been learning in their courses, why Dr. Arfsten brings DCE students to the LCMS International Center, and what DCE work looks like today compared to the past. Learn more about DCE formation at Concordia Chicago by visiting cuchicago.edu/dce.

As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let’s be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world. Catch real-life stories of mercy work of the LCMS and partners, updates from missionaries across the ocean, and practical talk about how to live boldly Lutheran.
