Synopsis

Pastor Riesen draws upon many years of pastoral experience. The stories of his encounters with interesting people and events are always appropriate to the point he is making. His illustrations are from real life. He is a scholarly pastor , and his catechism manifests that quality. Pastor Riesen holds to orthodox Christian teaching and conveys it to the inquirer. This is solid Christian food for those curious about the Christian faith. He writes from the "evangelical catholic" strand of Lutheran thought and practice. By that I mean that he sees Lutheranism as a reform movement within Western Christianity. He embraces the "catholic" heritage of Lutheranism and teaches about it in this catechism. He appreciates the long sweep of Christian history, its liturgy, its sacramental life, its aesthetic sensibility, and its high view of biblical authority. It will be enormously useful to all pastors and congregations who want to teach inquirers the "straight stuff."
