The Lutheran Difference: Law and Gospel (Downloadable)

Interpretation. Legalism. Freedom. Life application.

So many options. What do you believe?

(6 Sessions) As Lutherans interact with other Christians, they often struggle to explain their beliefs and practices. Although many Lutherans have learned the "what" of Lutheran doctrines, they do not always understand the "why." Based on God's Word as faithfully reflected in the Lutheran Confessions, this study will help you to state clearly what you believe.
