Book Summary

For more information on this new series, visit the website: http: //www.lutheranvoices.org. The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America professes to be a public church constituted by God for its public vocation. Moe-Lobeda explores what it means for the ELCA to play a role in public life today. Sections focus on what it means to be a public church, obstacles to being a public church in public life, power for the followers of Jesus, the "way of living" in public is a gift of God to the church. It is costly and dangerous, but yet gives life abundant, now and forever.
