I am currently in a Central Asian country, teaching local seminarians one of the fundamental tenets of Christianity: the proper distinction of Law and Gospel. Things have come full circle because twelve years ago Concordia Publishing House asked me to translate from German into English C.F.W. Walther’s seminal work, “Law & Gospel—How to Read and Apply the Bible.” And now here I am, a dozen years later—instructing future Lutheran pastors on this very same topic, using that very book as my textbook—in a Muslim country, no less! So grateful for our church body, the LCMS—spreading true Christianity around the globe—not only through faithful pastors all over the U.S. but also through hundreds of missionaries and our plethora of world-class resources!
