St. Paul is home to a relatively new seminary/grad school next to @TheLabMinnesota Brewery on Eustis Street. Actually, it’s a 60-year-old seminary/grad school. And it’s growing by leaps. #Stpaul 
Here we go...
Garage or chapel? Answer: Chapel!
Based on his own experience playing Division 1 football (Kansas), Rev. Gary Green II is interviewing Black athletes for curriculum on collegiate/professional sports, race and theology. On March 2, he’ll lead a virtual public discussion with Black faith leaders on Chauvin trial.
“Embodiment” — an ecumenical Christian outlook on accepting GLBTQ in the church and society. Sounds controversial? Imagine the reaction when United Theological Seminary faculty Rev. James Nelson published the book — in 1978.
A 60-year-old seminary enrolls Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Wiccans, pagans, atheists+‘post-theists,’ etc. 3 academic pillars: arts and theology, social justice/transformation and interfaith chaplaincy (for hospitals, prisons, hospice, etc). Enrollment? Growing annually.
Mortenson? Morgan? Some big names here...
Artists need apply: Situating school — which has “theology and arts” and social action tracks — in St. Paul’s Midway near Green Line was no accident. After 58 years in New Brighton, it was time to locate closer to arts and urban core. Registrar still looks like a registrar tho
No, there isn’t a hip coffee shop on campus. There is a hip @TheLabMinnesota Brewery though. And it sells hand sanitizer!
