About Western Theological Seminary

Located in Holland, Michigan, WTS offers 16 graduate programs online, in residence, in English, and Spanish for women and men preparing for faithful Christian ministry. WTS was founded in 1866 when seven of the eight members of Hope College’s inaugural graduating class wished to become ministers and petitioned their denomination to allow them to complete their education in Holland. Since that time, WTS has been preparing women and men for a lifetime of ministry all around the world in many ministry and denominational contexts.

Western Theological Seminary welcomes Sandra McCracken to lead this year’s “Doxophilia” – a week-long exploration of worship and worship renewal.

McCracken will be leading chapel for the seminary community each day from 9:40-10:00. The public is welcome to join us in Mulder Chapel.

On Tuesday March 5 from 7-9 PM, Sandra will host a Songwriters’ Workshop. This event is by invitation only, but if you would like to be invited, please email Dr. Ron Rienstra, professor of preaching and worship arts. There is no cost.

On Thursday March 7 from 7-9 PM, the public is invited to a concert with Sandra in the Concert Hall in the Jack Miller Center for Music at Hope College. There is no cost, but a love offering will be taken.

“Sandra McCracken’s prolific contributions as a songwriter, modern-day hymn writer, and record producer have brought grace and clarity to her soulful, folk-gospel sound. Whether in a theater or in a chapel, she is a dynamic performer who blurs the lines of what church music sounds like, captivating and inviting audiences to sing along. While many of her songs like “We Will Feast In The House Of Zion” and “Thy Mercy My God” have settled into regular rotation in Christian worship services internationally, she has also had songs recorded by All Sons And Daughters, ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy, Audrey Assad, A Rocha Compilation, Bifrost Arts, Caedmon’s Call and others. She is further a founding member of Indelible Grace Music and Rain For Roots (children’s music) and has been a guest writer for Art House America, She Reads Truth, The Gospel Coalition, Christianity Today, RELEVANT Magazine and more.” -from www.sandramccracken.com
