Bring Back the Bulldogs! The Rev. Dr. Gerard Bolling (Lead Pastor, Bethlehem Lutheran Church, St Louis, MO) and the Rev. Chris Kneppe (Pastor of Community Engagement, Bethlehem Lutheran Church, St. Louis, MO) join Andy and Sarah to talk about the revitalization of Bethlehem Lutheran School in St. Louis, including Bethlehem’s long history, the community where Bethlehem Lutheran is and serves today, how a Lutheran school is in a unique position to serve this community, what individualized learning looks like in Bethlehem’s setting, how they have seen children grow and thrive through their micro school, and the outlook for the 2025-2026 school year. Learn more about Bethlehem and how you can support the school at bethlehemstlouis.org.

As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let’s be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world. Catch real-life stories of mercy work of the LCMS and partners, updates from missionaries across the ocean, and practical talk about how to live boldly Lutheran.
