Conflict in the LCMS
Television public affairs program from KMOX related to the conflict in the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod resulting in the split forming Christ Seminary in Exile - Seminex in 1974.
Thanks for posting this. I just ordered "A Seminary in Crisis" by Paul Zimmerman from CPH to try to better understand the SEMINEX event. Our pastor is a SEMINEX grad and the ELCA is still dealing with issue today. The arguments made in this video are a great place to start. A little academic if you aren't into hardcore theology at times, but very well presented for the most part on both sides. Really gave me some understanding on the topic. Really helps understand both sides.
