This rare masterpiece is a 17th-century Lutheran dogmatics work to which C. F. W. Walther, first president of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod, added copious quotations from Luther and orthodox Lutheran theologians such as Martin Chemnitz and Johann Gerhard. This work was used as the systematic theology textbook at Concordia Seminary, St. Louis for many years, and was the basis for Francis Pieper's well-known "Christian Dogmatics." In Latin and German (modern typeface).

This is the perfect book to explain the liturgy to new members, youth, and even long-time members and pastors. First printed over a century ago, this Lutheran liturgical handbook uses questions and answers to explain the meaning of the Communion, Matins, and Vespers. (Liturgical texts are equivalent to those of The Lutheran Hymnal 1941.) In addition, hymnody, liturgical theology, and history are addressed succinctly.

If man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God, then Johann Starck has provided a bread basket for the Church with his Prayer-Book. This book of daily prayers, hymns, poetry, and devotions presents in every syllable the Bread that has come down from heaven. Written as daily nourishment in the Word of God, this book also lends itself to meditation and prayer during many of life's peculiar situations. Professor Dau describes Starck well when he writes, "Starck loved nothing sensational, nothing that was for mere display in matters of religion. Christian life, to him, was real and earnest, to be conducted in a sober mind. He was always bent on its practical applications to every pursuit and action, and on enlisting really the whole of a person in the service of the Master." When Christians nourish their souls daily with meditation upon the Word of God and the Sacraments, faith is strengthened. The Bread of Life fills hearts and minds, and Christ finds expression in the world through Christian life and speech. A contemporary pastor said it best when he said "Starck gives Christians a daily helping of meditation in God's Word, and leads them to satisfaction in their vocational tasks."

Pastor Wilhelm Loehe was arguably the most influencial Lutheran pastor in Germany in the 19th century. He was responsible for starting an international missionary society that positively affected the religous growth of North America, South America, and Australia. He founded a deaconess society in Neuendettelsau, Germany. But above all, he was a parish pastor at heart. His work on liturgical reform, prayers, and devotional literature are unmatched in impacting the Lutheran church of the 19th and 20th centuries. The Seed-Grains of Prayer divides historic, collect-style prayers according to the liturgical day, week, and season. This reprint of the 1914 translation brings Loehe's liturgical prayers back to English readers in an affordable, readable volume.

Christian Living

God enfleshed Himself and became one of us in order to redeem and rescue us from sin, death, and the devil. Christ’s incarnation forms the substance of all Christian preaching, and it is the essence of every celebration of the Lord’s Supper and Baptism, every proclamation of Absolution to repentant sinners. That’s why the Christian Church gathers around preaching and the Sacraments, and that’s why books of sermons continue to be published and cherished in the Church. Christ is present in His body – for us, for forgiveness.\nThe sermons in God With Us embody incarnational preaching. In fifty-nine sermons spanning Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany, including daily sermons for all of Advent, Pastor David Petersen preaches an ever-present Christ, a Christ for you, a Christ with you.
