On April 9, another of our DMin students, Rev. Seth Clemmer, successfully defended his dissertation, “Improving Youth Retention and Baptismal Administration at Bethany Lutheran Church, Naperville, Illinois, by Emphasizing Parental Responsibilities at Baptism.” As you can see, the DMin dissertations are very practically focuses–you can tell they’re researched and written by working pastors. Rev. Clemmer is senior pastor of Bethany Lutheran.
