The Lord's Supper in the Life of the Congregation
The Rev. Dr. Ziegler will lead our sessions on the Lutheran doctrine, practice, and piety of the Lord’s Supper in the local church
and spend time answering questions about the Lord's Supper.
About Our speaker: Rev. Dr. Roland Ziegler
Rev. Dr. Ziegler joined the Concordia Theological Seminary (CTSFW), Fort Wayne, faculty in 2000. He serves as the Robert D. Preus Professor of Systematic Theology and Confessional Lutheran Studies and chairman of Systematic Theology.
Born in the state of Baden-Württemberg, Germany, he studied at the Universities of Tübingen and Erlangen. He received his M.Div.(1993) from the Lutheran Theological Seminary, Oberursel. A scholarship enabled him to study as an exchange student at CTSFW. He received his Dr. theology from the Eberhard-Karls-Universität Tübingen in 2011.
He served as a teaching assistant at the Lutheran Theological Seminary in Oberursel (1993–1995), a vicar in Berlin (1995–1997), and a pastor in Konstanz (1997–2000).
He is married to Anne née Hollman and they reside in Fort Wayne. He has spent a considerable amount of his scholarship on the confessional Lutheran understanding of the doctrine and practice of the Lord’s Supper.
