Almost a Lutheran?
Great book and not just for Lutherans but all those who are interested in the Lutheran Church. Preus does an excellent job through point by point explanations of the Lutheran positions on a variety of topics. Highly recommended.

Excellent reminder of why I am a Lutheran
I really liked this book, not because I learned anything new but because as I sit in some Bible studies and even hear our pastor at our LCMS Lutheran church there tends to be various ideas creeping in that are not what I have been taught nor what I believe. I did not grow up Lutheran but read a lot before joining. I joined because what LCMS Lutherans believe is what I believe. This reaffirmed what I believe and what I thought my church believes.

Disappointed
I am returning this book as I belong to the Evangelican Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) and this author is Missouri Synod. This was not included in the info about the book. There are major theological differences between Missouri Synod Lutherans and ELCA Lutherans. Won't go into it all here but the ELCA is in full Communion with The Episcopal CHurch , the Presbyterian Church (US) and has an early stage agreement with the United Methodist Church - but we have no such agreement with the Missouri Synod!
