5.0 out of 5 stars Great Theological Primer 8 Oct 2010
By Paul A. Nelson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a great book that provides a succinct and accessible overview of the distinctiveness of traditional, historical Lutheran theology. If you're a Lutheran pastor, I'd suggest considering this book for use in new member classes or possibly even confirmation classes as well as adult Bible studies. If you're a Lutheran, this is a great way of reviewing or learning the basics of Lutheran theology, and makes a helpful companion to the Small Catechism as well as more weighty Lutheran writings such as The Book of Concord.

If you're not a Lutheran, this is still a very helpful book that discusses some important aspects of Christian theology (How are we saved? What is the role of Sacraments in the church? What can we know about God? How do we live our lives? What is worship?). Of course these topics will be treated from a Lutheran perspective, but you should find value if you're interested in how conservative Biblical Christianity approaches some of these topics.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have list 15 Feb 2010
By Pasadena - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This is a must have book for Lutherans and the people who love them. Unless you understand Luther's theology of two kingdoms and the theology of the cross, then you don't understand Lutherans and what makes them what they are. Furthermore, read about vocation in a way you've never thought about it before. This is just about the clearest telling available in the English language, aside from Giertz's Hammer of God.

5.0 out of 5 stars Find the unique Lutheran "take" on theology 31 Jan 2012
By Chris J. Pluger - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is one of my favorite theological books ever, and not just because I am a Lutheran. I have given many copies of this book away to friends from other theological traditions and denominations as a sort of "Lutheranism 101", with positive feedback every time. Veith's way of describing (not trumpeting) his Lutheran view of things is very helpful for Lutherans who want to see what their denomination has to say in the world today, and also for non-Lutherans wondering why we are so "different" in so many ways -- to evangelicals we often look Roman Catholic, and to Roman Catholics we seem very evangelical. Veith's book describes how Lutheranism's ideal is the middle road between the two: Evangelical Catholicism, or perhaps catholic evangelicalism. Either way, the Gospel is clearly highlighted in this very scriptural book of "spirituality."
