Description
Few think of Martin Luther as a theologian of holiness. "Be a sinner and sin boldly," after all - and leave sanctification for Catholics, Orthodox, Finnns and the Reformed. On the basis of close work in the sources, Renovatio advances a revisionist thesis: from the first inklings of his "Augustinian turn" c. 1514 to this death, Luther believed, taught and confessed a robust theology of renewal in holiness. The new, Reformation theology of God's promise...

Description
"Luther's development of a 'Wittenberg way' of practicing theology is seen reflected in a deep personal commitment to pastoral care of common Christians as well as his reading of the biblical text. Crucially, at the heart of all interpretation of the Bible, Luther placed the distinction between the 'gospel' God's unmerited gift of identity as his children, and the 'law', the expression of God's expectations for the performance of his children in good...

One of the hallmarks of Luther's theology was its concern for daily life. In the midst of debates about justification and salvation, church authority, and the Lord's Supper, he bore a deep concern for daily Christian life. Mark D. Tranvik looks at the importance of vocation in Luther's own life and in doing so discovers renewed insights into this important doctrine. Vocation, the called life, is a way of understanding that all of life is under the...

Description
Work can be a daily grind -- a hard, monotonous set of thankless tasks. In the midst of the ongoing toil, many are plagued by a lack of purpose, confused as to what to do and who to become. And while some of our vocations may seem more overtly meaningful than others', the truth is that most of us work because we have to. It is a means to an end -- survival. Given the enormous amount of time each of us spends working, we would do well to understand...
