Abstract: ABSTRACT This article explores the rapidly increasing reality of religious nones and proposes a way forward beyond Lutheran theological neutrality regarding those who are non‐religious. Drawing on the work of Lutheran feminist theologians Kathryn Kleinhans and Elisabeth Gerle, it explores how a Lutheran understanding of self‐in‐relation alongside the Lutheran vocational call to delight in the neighbor compel us to move beyond the religious/non‐religious binary to be opened to new spiritual truths through interpathic relationships with those who are non‐religious.
