LCMS YG: The Concordia University System

We chat with the Concordia University System at the 2025 LCMS Youth Gathering! The Rev. Dr. Jamison Hardy (President of Concordia University System) and the Rev. Dr. Douglas Spittel (Vice President of Concordia University System) join Andy and Sarah on the KFUO Stage to talk about how the Concordia Universities are involved in the LCMS Youth Gathering, the highlights of the Gathering for both of them, how their visits to LCMS District Conventions increased relationships, the scholarships now available for church work students, and exciting new developments about regional micro campuses. Learn more about the Concordia Universities at cus.edu.

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. Have a topic you'd like to hear about on The Coffee Hour? Contact us at: listener@kfuo.org.
