Concordia Publishing House is the publisher for the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod, founded in 1869.

From the Back Cover:

The 10 contributors to this volume present their insights from varied experiences as active pastors of Lutheran congregations.  Law and Gospel, Holy Baptism, the Lord's Supper, the communion of saints, and vocation are only several of the subjects treated as dynamic, living channels by means of which God declares and seals His promises to His sons and daughters.

Luther still has much to offer in the way of evangelical counsel to those presed by the demands of contemporary existence.  Each essay spells out the resources God provides for those called by the Gospel, who are at once heirs of the promise through fiath, thankful recipients of His gifts, and stewards of His creation.
