Being Lutheran
Why are you Lutheran? It's a valid question in this modern age of denominations, distinctions, and choices.
Love's Pure Light
The stage is set. Millennium after millennium, the prophets have spoken of these days; and now, the time has come. More than an Advent devotional booklet, this four-part mini-Bible study helps the reader get ready during the Advent season for the coming Savior, bringing into focus the real reason we celebrate Christmas. Originally written for high school youth, Love's Pure Light: A Bible Study for Advent is designed to immerse the reader in all the themes and texts traditionally associated with the Advent season.

The Art of Exegesis
Although he loomed large during his lifetime, Martin Hans Franzmann has faded away in the minds of American Lutherans. Memories of him typically orbit around an appreciation for his hymnody. He was, however, more than a hymn writer. To only understand or appreciate his hymns is to only understand or appreciate a part of him. This book seeks to shine a light on a brilliant and gifted poet of the church by unpacking and analyzing his life and work. In so doing, it is hoped that he will loom large once again. Franzmann's hymns have endured for a reason, namely because he was singularly focused on teaching people to hear the voice of God in the text of the Scriptures.
All God's People Sing
Presents hymns and spirituals which accompany the Lutheran worship service.
Authority Vested
Like other major Protestant denominations in the United States, the 2.6-million-member Luther Church-Missouri Synod (LCMS), founded in 1847, has struggled with issues of relevance and identity in society at large. In this book Mary Todd chronicles the history of this struggle for identity in the LCMS, critically examining the central--often contentious--issue of authority in relation to Scripture, ministry, and the role of women in the church. In recounting the history of the denomination, Todd uses the ministry of women as a case study to show how the LCMS has continually redefined its concept of authority in order to maintain its own historic identity. Based on oral histories and solid archival research, Authority Vested not only explores the internal life of a significant denomination but also offers critical insights for other churches seeking to maintain their Christian distinctives in religiously pluralistic America.
Faith in the Shadow of a Pandemic
"In our lifetime, we have never experienced a disaster with effects as widespread as the COVID-19 pandemic. The terrorist attacks of 9/11 certainly caused upheaval, but they didn't force people to shelter at home or cause churches to stop meeting. As we slowly work back to our normal lives-or a new normal-we must recognize this will not be the last major disaster we will ever have to face. But what does that mean for the Church, especially the local congregation?"--
