The Augsburg Confession is the single most-important confession of
faith among Lutherans today. However, it is often taught either
from a historical perspective or from a dogmatic one. Yet the
context out of which it arose was far more practical and lively:
marked from the outset as confessions of faith in the face of
fierce opposition and threats. The original princely signers, while
clearly outlining the teaching of their churches, were also staking
their lives on the witness to the gospel that had been emanating
from Wittenberg since 1517, when Martin Luther first published his
Ninety-Five Theses. By situating both the history and the theology
of this document within the practice and life of faith, Timothy J.
Wengert shows just how relevant the Confession's witness is for
today's Lutheran parishes and their leaders by unlocking how its
articles can shape and strengthen the church's witness today.
