The Seven Ecumenical Councils
What, exactly, were the Seven Ecumenical Councils? How and why did they come about? What
exactly did they decree? How have Lutherans received them? Do they matter for the life of the
evangelical Lutheran church today? If so, how? If not, why not? The Seven Ecumenical Councils
serves as a reacquaintance with the issues leading up to each of these councils and closely
examines their decrees using the original texts with the goal of assessing their value to the
church bound to the confession of Jesus Christ today. Course approach: some lecture with a
high level of guided student-teacher and student-student interaction.
