Susan Briehl's 2010 Hein Fry Lecture on Feb. 12

Rev. Susan Briehl presented the 2010 Hein Fry Lecture at 1:30 p.m., Feb. 12 at Texas Lutheran University. It was an "exciting" ride leaving the Dallas snow and ice that morning to drive the 250 miles down there. But the journey was smooth and the presentation ("Hearing the Word: Teaching the Bible in the Parish and Beyond") was encouraging. Pastor Briehl, an English major in college who took a Bible literature course from "the Lord" (her teacher's name was Dr Lord!), has a wonderful way of presenting with almost hymnic or poetic words as well as directly to the issues. I hope I can incorporate even a portion of the ideas in my regular Sunday morning Adult Bible Study.
