Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - When the Christian church faced its greatest crisis, Hermann Sasse insisted that clear confession was not optional. Hermann Sasse (1895-1976) was one of the most important--and least widely known--voices in twentieth-century Lutheran the…ology. Lutheran Confessor: Hermann Sasse on the Essentials of the Faith invites readers to discover Sasse's life, historical context, and theological vision, showing how his commitment to Scripture and the Lutheran Confessions was shaped by war, political upheaval, and deep division within the church. Rooted in the Book of Concord and the heritage of Martin Luther, this volume introduces Sasse as a pastor-theologian whose work remains strikingly relevant today. Drawing on careful historical research and close engagement with Sasse's writings, John T. Pless follows Sasse's journey from his theological formation in German Protestantism and his experience in World War I to his influential role in the church struggles of the 1930s. The book explores Sasse's collaboration with Dietrich Bonhoeffer, his involvement in drafting the Bethel Confession, and his opposition to the 'German Christian' movement. Central throughout is Sasse's insistence that justification by grace alone through faith alone is not one doctrine among many, but the heart of the gospel and the measure of the church's faithfulness. Pless also highlights Sasse's understanding of the church's life and witness, including the sacramental life, theological confession, and the challenges of speaking faithfully in the public square. Rather than offering easy solutions, Sasse's work models how clarity, humility, and theological seriousness serve the church in every age. Readers will benefit from this book by: - Gaining an accessible introduction to Hermann Sasse's life and theological commitments - Exploring the central role of justification in Lutheran teaching and church life - Understanding how confessional Lutheran theology was tested during periods of political and ecclesial crisis - Seeing how doctrine, church fellowship, and public witness intersect in times of cultural pressure - Reflecting on how faithful confession can address challenges facing the church today Lutheran Confessor will appeal to pastors, seminarians, students of Christian history, and thoughtful lay readers seeking a theologically rich yet accessible introduction to Hermann Sasse and the enduring questions of confession, doctrine, and faithfulness in the modern world.
