Speaker: Pastor Scott Grorud
Pastor Scott Grorud has served at Faith Lutheran Church in Hutchinson, MN, since 2006. He grew up in Montana and northern Idaho, graduating from C.M. Russell High School in Great Falls, MT. He attended the late, great Dana College in Blair, NE, and then received his Master of Divinity from (then) Luther Northwestern Theological Seminary in St. Paul, MN, as a fourth-generation graduate of that institution. After working for a coalition of seminary libraries for four years, he began parish ministry in Redwood Falls, MN, where he served until moving to Hutchinson. He met his wife, Shelly, at Dana College. They have two children who live in Washington, D.C. and Los Angeles, and two grandchildren whom they don’t get to see nearly often enough.
THEME: “PERPLEXING PARABLES”
Many of the parables Jesus told are beloved and comforting, but others are puzzling, surprising or even shocking. How are we to make sense of stories in which Jesus seems to praise dishonesty, rudeness, recklessness or to threaten inescapable judgment? At Elderversity we will explore some of these perplexing texts from Biblical, cultural and theological perspectives to discover how they proclaim Law and Gospel in powerful and sometimes unexpected ways.
