“I’m spiritual, but I’m not religious.”
This is a common postmodern sentiment—“Truth is relative, so I’ll pick what’s right for me.”
To deliver us from the alienated subjectivity of postmodernity, we need a way to recover the spiritual significance of objective reality. Lutheranism can help us do that.
Lutheranism shows how the physical realm and the most ordinary corners of our lives—our work, our families, and our society in all of its secularity—are charged with the presence of God. Lutheranism can also help people today regain a conception of God, come to terms with suffering, and gain a sense that their lives have meaning.

“Consistently engaging from cover to cover.”

“Engaging, in the truest and freshest sense of that word.”
