William Carlson Bethel Seminary: Education of the Heart and Mind (A review of A Time of Transformation: edited by James and Carole Spickelmier The History Center, 2013) Glen Scorgie Professor of Theology at Bethel Seminary I Jim Spickelmier's last days, prior to his death this past September, were characterized by a remarkable surge of literary productivity. Feeling an urgency to leave an accessible witness to a Christian community and heritage he had grown to love, Jim, along with his wife Carole, produced in the space of just a few Bethel Seminary, 1982-2012 St. Paul, Minnesota: years a number of historical volumes on Carl Lundquist, the Baptist General Conference and Bethel University. This particular volume covers the recent history of Bethel Seminary. Jim wrote about half the book himself. For the balance, he got help from some like-minded, well-informed friends: James Mason, Diana L. Magnuson, James D. Smith III, and Cheryl Gregg. As most readers will know, the Seminary began in 1871, just thirteen years after Minnesota attained statehood and while Scandinavian immigrants were still flooding continued on p. 13 Dietrich Bonhoeffer and the Quest for the Present Jesus: Some Reflections for the Church Today Dr. Joel Lawrence Senior Pastor, Central Baptist Church, St. Paul, Minnesota, former Assistant Professor of Systematic Theology, Bethel Seminary Bonhoeffer and popular culture Dietrich Bonhoeffer continues to fascinate and intrigue people at both the scholarly and popular levels. It would be difficult to name another theologian whose life story has garnered the kind of attention as Bon- hoeffer's. His context in Nazi Germany, his travels throughout Europe and America, his engagement with Gandhi and desire to study non-violence in India, his role in the plot to kill Hitler and, of course, his death at the hands of the Nazi regime, all make Bonhoeffer an engaging figure. Most recently, two works have thrust Bonhoeffer into the popular culture in a whole new way: First, Martin Doblmeier's 2004 documentary, Bonhoeffer, had a long run in theaters and has been rebroadcast on PBS. Second, and perhaps more significant, is the 2011 biography by Eric Metaxas, Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy, a New York Times bestseller. As aBonhoeffer scholar, I've been amazed at how many people, when they hear of my work in Bonhoeffer's theology, Bonhoeffer: A Guide for the Perplexed, want to discuss what they've learned aboutBonhoef- continued on p. 15
