Luther for Evangelicals: A Reintroduction Paperback - 2018

by Paul R. Hinlicky


From the publisher

This brief introduction to Luther's theology connects Luther with the evangelical tradition. Paul Hinlicky, one of today's leading Lutheran theologians, explores six key areas of doctrine for which Luther is regarded as an authority, correcting common misconceptions of his thought in light of the whole of his theology. This work regrounds evangelical mission in a new evangelism and catechesis on the basis of Luther's doctrine of the atonement as "joyful exchange." In addition to its classroom utility, it will be of interest to evangelical pastors and church leaders.

From the rear cover

"This splendid book offers a fresh and critical reading of Luther based not only on the Reformer's theological treatises but also on his catechisms and hymns. By liberating Luther from Melanchthon and subsequent Lutheranism, Hinlicky helps evangelicals to discover their own Reformational roots while showing that modern evangelicalism will have to change if it wants to claim Luther as a spiritual ancestor. I recommend this book not only to evangelicals but also to all who want to know why Luther's theology remains pertinent for our time."
--Jens Zimmermann, Trinity Western University and Regent College, Vancouver

"Hinlicky not only challenges the status-quo ways of reading Luther that have been reduced to 'influential but misleading interpretive clichés, ' but also invites the wider world of evangelical Christians into a conversation based on an understanding of Luther as a teaching theologian rather than as a hero or prophet. Hinlicky's desire is to take each of us to the primary sources, Luther's writings, where we can hear, read, and sing his witness."
--Amy C. Schifrin, North American Lutheran Seminary and Trinity School for Ministry, Ambridge, Pennsylvania

"The need for contemporary evangelicals to rediscover their magisterial Protestant heritage is pressing: there are depths for us to plumb which will only enhance our sense of the urgency of the gospel and the unique significance of Christ. Hinlicky has done the church and the academy a great service with this book and its reengagement with Luther. A masterful contribution."
--Tom Greggs, University of Aberdeen

"Evangelical or not, readers will enjoy and benefit from this learned, fresh, and imaginative interpretation of Luther's thought. Hinlicky continues to impress as one of America's leading Lutheran theologians."
--Robert Benne, Benne Center for Religion and Society, Roanoke College

"A delightfully provocative and fresh reading of Luther using language familiar to evangelicals. Hinlicky shows us a Luther who is at home talking about Scripture inerrantly pointing to Christ, and about the importance of new birth from above. Hinlicky also delves into how experiences of faith, located in the proclamation of God's grace and taught through the catechisms, embed the gospel in the human heart. This book helpfully explores Luther's deeply theological and experiential sense of the gospel."
--Gordon A. Jensen, Lutheran Theological Seminary, Saskatoon, Canada
