Lutheran Identiy

German edition of Volume 32 - Lutherische Kirche. Geschichte und GestaltenLutheranism has spread throughout the world in various ways. As a result, it has become at home in very different cultural contexts. But can there be a 'Lutheran identity' Or are there not rather 'Lutheran identities,' depending on the character And what connects them, how does one live in a communion that makes possible numerous expressions of 'Lutheran identity,' and where are the challenges of this togetherness In its struggle for communion that is to be a living church community, the Lutheran World Federation faces these very questions. Reason enough to look for identity markers, for pillars of a common Lutheran identity that have relevance for history, the present and different cultural contexts, linking theology and history.
