Jesus and Just War: A Webinar Exploring Just War Theory (North Carolina Council of Churches)
May 13 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Join us for a thought-provoking webinar with Duane Larson (MDiv., PhD, DD), retired ELCA pastor and Systematic Theologian. He has served as President and Professor at Wartburg Theological Seminary and as faculty at Lutheran Theological Seminary at Gettysburg (now United Lutheran Seminary). He is the author of Ubi Deus Dixit: Where God Has Spoken: The Lutheran Doctrine of Two Kingdoms and Care for the Sorrowing Soul, and has written extensively on the ethics of the use of force by governments and moral injury.
In this session, Dr. Larson will offer a brief overview of just war principles and invite reflection on what it means to follow Christ and engage with the government around the issue of violence in our modern world.
Following the presentation, stay for a conversation with Dr. Larson alongside Jennifer Copeland, Executive Director, and Rev. Carl W. Rosenberg, retired ELCA pastor and U.S. Army Chaplain (Lt. Colonel, Retired), offering additional pastoral and real-world perspective.
Presented in partnership with the North Carolina Synod, ELCA
