Theologian to Deliver Noble Lecture Series

"Nature and Grace" will be the topic for this year's William Beldon Noble lectures, to be given by the Rev. Joseph Sittler from Dec. 6 to Dec. 10. In particular, the Rev. Sittler will discuss the possible relationships between natural and revealed theology.

An ordained minister of the United Lutheran Church, the Rev. Sittler is now professor of theology at the University of Chicago. Previously, he held a professorship at the Chicago Lutheran Seminary and served for 13 years as a pastor in Cleveland, Ohio.

After study at Wittenburg College and the Hamman Divinity School, he obtained his D.D. at Wagner College in 1948. In that year he also completed his Doctrine of the Word. After giving the Rockwell Lectures at Rice Institute last January, he published those addresses under the title, The Structure of Ethics.
