Overview Book of Concord should be in every Lutheran home. If a person isn't familiar with this book, he'll think, 'That old book is just for pastors. I don't have to preach. After working all day, I can't sit down and study in the evening. If I read my morning and evening devotions, that's enough.' No, that is not enough! The Lord doesn't want us to remain children, blown to and fro by every wind of doctrine; instead of that, He wants us to grow in knowledge so that we can teach others." Book of Concord is all about. This edition of the Lutheran Confessions will instruct, inspire, and educate all who use it and help them learn what it means to be, and to remain, a genuinely confessing Lutheran Christian.

The Form and Substance of the Protestant Reformation
In roughly 830 pages the substance of Luther's protest is magnificently displayed, while the "Pure Gospel" has been preserved and given its primacy as the center of all Christian Doctrine.

TREASURE
This hardbound and beautifully embossed edition is an absolute treasure! The editors have done an excellent job adding historical information to help with understanding some of the context. Honestly, as one who came to Lutheranism by way of Geneva, this has helped me to grow and understand so much of our faith. This book will be read over and over by this family.

The Readers' Edition is pure gold. I have two copies; one in hardcover and one in bonded leather. The format is outstanding, and the historical background information is excellent. As someone who is an amateur theology buff and came to Lutheranism later in life through Scripture and study, this is a wonderfully done source.

Quality binding and pages, clear print and images. Binding does not keep it from staying open when using. Glad we purchased the hardback so that it would last to be passed on. Easy to use in a group class or for independent study.
