DESCRIPTION

When reflecting on various Christian churches, the words courages, trailblaizing, diverse, or action-oriented might not be ones naturally attached to Luthers—but they should be! Yes, they have roots in northern Europe, but the people called Lutherans offer liberating insights into Christian faith, encompass a worldwide reach, and tell a story that goes back 500 years while pointing to the future.

Together by Grace guides readers across the broad landscape of faith and time. Over two dozen gifted writers—scholars, pastors, leaders, activists—paint a colorful map for this journey. Newcomers will find intriguing entry points, and lifelong Lutherans will discover new dimensions. Whether it's a passion for a grace-filled theology, worship and music that lift spirits, or a deep concern for wholeness and justice, Lutherans are engaged in the world, alongside other Christians and those of various faiths.

God's passion—to bring all things together by grace, to make us alive together with Christ—makes possible a life of living, daring confidence in God's grace. Together.
