Inquiry 2: Lutheran theology has Grace at heart

wicksonr — 2023-01-22 11:00:11 UTC

Grace is the heart of our theology and shapes our practices in Lutheran Schools. But what do we mean by Grace? If someone asked you ‘What is Grace?’, what would you say?

In the padlet column ‘Perspectives on Grace’ and "Lutheran Spirituality", use the resources to start exploring the question; ‘What are important aspects of spirituality from a Lutheran perspective?’

Choose from some of the clips, stories, songs and articles to add to your understanding. Note down quotes, analogies, images etc, that capture this rich concept.
How might this shape your practice and role?

Inquiry 3: Making Connections

wicksonr — 2023-01-22 11:51:59 UTC

What should a college that has grace as a core value; look like, sound like and feel like?

Is it evident in school statements, policies, procedures?
How does it shape the way we interact with students, colleagues and families?
What difference does it mean to you and your practice?

Remember to reflect on these 2 guiding questions:

In what ways might the concept of grace shape Lutheran education communities?

In what ways might the concept of grace inform the understanding of my role and my contribution?

Inquiry - What does it mean

wicksonr — 2025-03-12 00:31:49 UTC

We usually define God’s grace as ‘undeserved favour’. Grace cannot be earned, bought or attained by our actions. It is purely and simply a free gift God gives us through the sacrificial suffering and death of his beloved Son Jesus on the cross.

But it doesn’t end with our Saviour on the cross. He rose again from death and ascended to glory, also bringing that same glory and the joy of the assurance of heaven to us. We can be assured of God’s grace and the relationship he built with us through it.
