Mustaches We Wish They Had

After he lands you an interview for the perfect ministry job, Dr. Trautmann will make sure you are the most memorable candidate.

Being a Mel Gibson fan doesn’t give you an excuse to emulate his facial hair. Furthermore, we still don’t believe Dr. Campbell’s stories about “aliens in his cornfield”.

Nice soul patch! I think I heard somewhere that Dr. Hauff’s facial hair grows this way naturally – the “General Burnside Cheek Beard”, that is.

Contrary to popular belief, Vince Guaraldi is alive and well, working under an alias here at MU. Ask Dr. Katsion to play Linus & Lucy for you sometime and you’ll know it’s true.

Dr. Stephen Kim is, quite possibly, the most versatile “mustacher” on campus. Observe…

… ready for a little swashbuckling…

… is it Hall or Oates that had the mustache? I can never remember…

… be afraid.

Fast-forward 50 years, and this is what Dr. Kutz (2nd Dan Black Sash in Hwa Rang Do) will look like.

Until next year, Cheers!

Seminary Class Participation

Here’s a brief synopsis of the practical involvement of one of Dr. Roger Trautmann’s classes:

MBS students enrolled in “PM 645: Evangelism for the 21^st Century” have an assignment to interview practitioners mobilizing God’s people in the area of “word & deed” evangelism.  The assignment is designed to take the theory constructed and discussed in the classroom and then see it contextualizing and implementing in the world of “every-day” life.  The Innovative Evangelism Conference provides the rare opportunity to hear and interact with  up-to-date practitioners and theoreticians through plenary and workshop sessions.  This has been provided by the Next Generation Alliance , a leader in the area of evangelism in both the local community and around the world, to MBS students.  PM (Pastoral Ministry) 645 students are given the opportunity to attend and report on what they learned in this conference as a part of the course.

Seminary News Highlights

• Seminary Chapel Panel: Join us for a ministry panel sponsored by the Master’s Cabinet on Tuesday, Nov. 3, 10:00-11:00 AM in T111/T112. The theme of the panel is “Seminary Education in Action: An Examination of Real-World Applications in Portland.” The panel will involve 3 guest speakers (prominent Christian figures in Portland) that represent many different angles of ministry (church pastors, church planters, academia, government, and non-profit organizations.)  There will be a time to ask questions that are relevant to both our student body and the panelist’s individual experience/expertise.  Light breakfast provided!  Please invite your families, neighbors, and friends!
  
• Chaplain to Chaplain: Come join us for the second of the ‘Chaplain to Chaplain’ round table meetings. We would encourage anyone who is interested in chaplaincy, anyone who would just like to learn more about chaplaincy & how it works, or those who may want to do it as an internship, to join us. CPE supervisor, Kent Schaufelberger will be on campus Tuesday, November 10th to speak with chaplaincy students or anyone interested in chaplaincy. He will be sharing his valuable experiences as well as allow you a chance to ask some questions.

His story is amazing and typical all at once (Mechanic, out of school for a long time, wants to go back, wants to minister to children in Honduras, needs to know more about the truths in the Bible in order to make the leap well. You get the picture!).

But there’s only so much you can say in a 60-second radio spot…

What You Didn’t Hear

We have a great 9 minute interview from the KEX studio that didn’t make it into the spot – it always reminds me about why I do what I do.
