My assignment is to serve as professor at the Theological Community of Mexico Comunidad Teológica de México (CTM), and Augsburg Lutheran Seminary (SEMLA), which forms part of the CTM. The CTM is an ecumenical consortium of seminaries in Mexico City. My work relates to one of the specific outcomes established by ELCA Global Mission for its work with churches in other countries according to its Accompaniment model, namely, that of the “development of strong and effective leaders.” Following the Accompaniment model, my assignment has been at the request of the Theological Community. While my activities as professor include teaching things such as theology, Biblical studies, and Lutheran thought, history, and practice, my focus is constantly on practice and not just theory. For me, theology is extremely important because before we can proclaim the gospel, we must grasp it correctly: the gospel of Jesus Christ empowers, transforms, and liberates people and gives wholeness to them as well as to others through them.
