Muster Speaker Bio:
Rev. Dr. Gerald B. Kieschnick ’64
Dr. Gerald B. (Jerry) Kieschnick served from 2001 to 2010 as president of the two million member Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. Prior to becoming LCMS president, Kieschnick had been president of the Synod’s Texas District for 10 years.
Upon completion of his third three-year term as Synod president in 2010, Dr. Kieschnick and his wife Terry returned to Texas. He was Presidential Ambassador for Mission Advancement at Concordia University Texas (2011-15) and developed Concordia’s Christian Leadership Institute.
In 2016 he returned to Lutheran Foundation of Texas, recently renamed Legacy Deo, where he had served from 1986-91. In 2017 he was named Chief Executive Officer of Legacy Deo, which exists to help Christians use God’s gifts to create a legacy for family and faith. Its mission is to inspire giving that impacts life forever.
He currently serves as founding member and pastoral advisor of Mission of Christ Network; founding member of Ministry Focus; and founding member of Pastor360.
He has also served as elementary Lutheran school teacher; mission developer; parish pastor; chairman of the LCMS Commission on Theology and Church Relations; and chairman of The International Lutheran Council, comprised of presidents and bishops of over 35 worldwide Lutheran church bodies.
During his tenure as national church president, Dr. Kieschnick led a national campaign, Fan into Flame, which resulted in gifts of $80,000,000 for national and international mission work.
A native of Houston, Dr. Kieschnick holds degrees from Texas A&M University (Animal Science), where he was a Corps of Cadets Company Commander and member of the Ross Volunteers; Concordia Theological Seminary (Bachelor and Master of Divinity); and Concordia University Texas (Doctor of Laws).
Jerry and Terry, his wife of 56 years, have two grown children, one son-in-law, and two grandchildren, all of whom live in Texas.
June 7, 2021 marked Dr. Kieschnick’s 51st ordination anniversary. Jerry simply sums up the past 51 years by saying: “Thanks be to God for his unfathomable grace and blessing!”
Someday Jerry might retire from fulltime ministry endeavors. Till then, he enjoys, is fulfilled, and is energized by helping people leave a legacy to their family and faith based causes.
