The Hispanic community is growing fast and promises to transform North American churches. Theological schools are stepping up with a variety of programs to train Latinos and Latinas for Christian leadership.

A quick overview of what’s happening at five Minnesota theological schools: Bethel Seminary, Luther Seminary, Saint John’s School of Theology–Seminary, United Theological Seminary of the Twin Cities, and St. Paul Seminary School of Divinity.

The day of the ‘heroic president’ is over, says Robert E. Cooley in an interview with retiring In Trust president Christa R. Klein. These days, the president’s role is to work with the board, faculty, and administration to form a pluralistic leadership team — one that can quickly adapt to an uncertain future.

The role of the chief financial officer is to help the board and the leadership team achieve the school’s mission, say Winston Ling and Randy Henderson, past and current CFOs at Tyndale University College & Seminary.

Board members really do need to know everything about a school. That means they need orientation — continuing education for old and new board members alike.
