| Description | Milton Valentine (1 January 1825 - 7 February 1906) was an American theologian and educator. In 1846, he enrolled at Pennsylvania College, Gettysburg and graduated in 1850; he then entered the Lutheran Theological Seminary in the same town, graduated in 1852, and was licensed as a minister. When the Pennsylvania Ministerium founded its own seminary in Philadelphia, Valentine accepted a professorship. After two years of teaching, he was elected president of the college where he served for sixteen years. In 1884, he again became a professor of theology and chairman of the faculty. He retired in 1903 as professor emeritus. From 1871 to 1906, he was an editor of the Quarterly Review of the Evangelical Lutheran Church. He was a member of the joint committee which prepared the Common Service which is now used by most English-speaking Lutheran churches. In 1898, he published Christian Truth and Life, a volume of sermons. Prabook |
