Upcoming Lecture
Dr. Mark Schuler invites the CSP community to a lecture in the Buetow Music Auditorium on Wednesday, May 4, at 10:30am. Titled Τετέλεσται, this lecture is a final report on the 20-year excavation project at Hippos of the Decapolis, overlooking the east shore of the Sea of Galilee at which the Concordia team uncovered an urban monastic complex centered on a healing cult honoring a revered woman. This lecture also marks the retirement of Dr. Schuler from the theology faculty at Concordia Saint Paul after twenty-eight years of service.

Erdogan Talks of Making Hagia Sophia a Mosque Again, to International Dismay – The New York Times
Such a beautiful and important site for both Christians and Muslims, best remaining as a museum, in my view.
The World Heritage site was once a potent symbol, and it could become one once more.
