Description
A modern dogmatics text, Confessing the Gospel: A Lutheran Approach to Systematic
Theology presents readers with contemporary discussions of pressing issues and
current challenges in the last several decades of the Church's life.
Readers will uncover a recent perspective on Lutheran systematic theology that
complements the masterful work of Francis Pieper in his three volumes of Christian
Dogmatics. The first dogmatics published by the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod in
nearly a century, each chapter of Confessing the Gospel is structured around five
building blocks - scriptural foundation, confessional witness, systematic formulation,
historical and contemporary developments, and implications for life and ministry - and
firmly grounded in Scripture.
Confessing the Gospel is invaluable for Lutheran pastors, teachers, professors, and
Christians who want to arrive at a deeper understanding of the Lutheran confession of
the faith.
