After a journey of years through a variety of religious experiences and frustrations with mysticism and eastern religions, liberal theology and social justice programs, and several branches of Christianity, Dr. Gene Veith found answers in Christianity and specifically with "the first evangelicals [Lutherans]."

For Veith, Christianity is not about a general vague force called God but about "God in the flesh and God on the cross" and why this matters in everyday life. It all "hinges around this one historical faith ... around this mystery of incarnation, atonement, redemption."

In The Spirituality of the Cross, the author discusses in detail the biblical views of "the first evangelicals," why and how they satisfy our deep hunger for the spiritual. He found this "framework big enough to embrace the whole range of human existence, a realistic spirituality."

Topics include:

the Word of God
justification by faith
means of grace
worship
theology of the cross
vocation
the two kingdoms and the church

Testimonials

It is with great joy that I recommend the products on this site. The theology behind them alone is reason enough to purchase any of the items. In our day, we have sadly lost sight of the wondrous doctrines of grace, and may God use these products and site to kindle a Reformational blaze within our hearts.

Coming from an Evangelical background after having been baptized and confirmed in the Lutheran Church as a child, it was a refreshing Christ-centered gulp of water to my soul to finally understand the marvels of grace alone, Christ alone, and Scripture alone.
