This unique collection of excerpts from Lutheran historical documents--many translated here for the first time--presents readers with a full picture of how the Lutheran movement developed in its thought and practice. Covering not only theology but also church life, popular piety, and influential historical events, the primary documents include theological treatises, confessional statements, liturgical texts, devotional writings, hymns, letters and diaries, satirical polemics, political documents, woodcuts, and pamphlet literature. This first volume covers the chronological period from Luthers first calls for reform to the development of Lutheran Orthodoxy and Pietism during the seventeenth century. The judiciously selected and carefully translated texts as well as the contextualizing information provided in each chapters introductory essay acquaint readers with the turbulence and fervor of this revolutionary Christian movement, its struggles for survival and consolidation, and its further evolution up to the dawn of the Enlightenment.

Here ten Lutheran theologians explore Lutheran emphases, themes, and approaches to offer their account of Christian ethics as a way of life in today's world. Writing in dialogue, they raise foundational concerns of biblical and theological sources and norms, of Christian freedom and responsibility, of call and social witness, of justice and formation in prayer. Then in a lively "Table Talk" the participants discuss and debate the tradition's insights and oversights and show how it might illumine today's burning ethical issues, such as homosexuality.

The series contains one copy of "Social Policy Documents of the Lutheran Churches" (1944-1975), 1975. The compilation covers all social statements approved by the Lutheran Council in the USA (LCUSA) and its cooperating members. Statements dated prior to the LCUSA's establishment in 1967 were made by the LCUSA's participating bodies and their predecessors. The period covers the entire life span of The American Lutheran Church (TALC) and the Lutheran Church in America (LCA). Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod (LCMS) statements are also included. LCUSA social statements and all congressional testimony are included through June 1975. The term "social statements" refers to positions on social concerns which served a normative function in the church bodies or in the LCUSA.
