Senn also taught at the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago (1978–81). He has been an adjunct or visiting professor at the University of Chicago Divinity School (1982–84), the University of Notre Dame, Concordia University Chicago, Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary, Trinity Theological College in Singapore, Satya Wacana Christian University in Central Java, Indonesia, Trinity School for Ministry, and Carey Theological College in Vancouver, and Reformed Theological Seminary of Indonesia in Jakarta. Senn has a B.A. in music from Hartwick College, Oneonta, New York, a M.Div. from the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago, and a Ph.D. in liturgical studies from the University of Notre Dame. His work centers on the history and renewal of Christian liturgy and ecumenicism. Early in his career he served on several Lutheran liturgical committees and contributed to the work on the Lutheran Book of Worship (1978).

His magnum opus is Christian Liturgy---Catholic and Evangelical (1997), which is a history of Christian liturgy whose center of gravity is the Reformation period. He has been especially interested in liturgy and culture and liturgy in social history. His most recent project in 2016, Embodied Liturgy: Lessons in Christian Ritual, grew out of a course he taught in Indonesia and focuses on the use of the body in liturgy and worship. Eucharistic Body (2017) continues this project by exploring the connections between the historical body of Christ, the sacramental body of Christ, the body of the communicant, and the social body of Christ.

Frank Senn is married to Mary Elizabeth Senn, a clinical social worker. They have three married adult children: Andrew, Nicholas, and Emily.
