The Comfort of Lutheran Doctrine

What is the significance of Lutheran doctrine? It all comes down to comfort for the troubled conscience. And true comfort can only be found when nothing is left to uncertainty and chance.

This collection of essays from Rev. Matthew C. Harrison, many of which are taken from his presidential letters in The Lutheran Witness, points to the authority of Scripture, the comfort of Christ's resurrection and salvation, and the certainty of the Lutheran Confessions. This comfort and assurance in Christ Jesus dispels the devil's accusations against us, eases our anxieties, and helps us live confidently in a world of uncertainty.

The Rev. Dr. Matthew C. Harrison has served as assistant pastor of Village Lutheran Church, Ladue, MO since 2010 while also serving as president of The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod (LCMS). As pastor and president, he has been called to comfort and lead God's people.
