The "Lutheran" in the title doesn't mean The Lutheran Toolkit is just for Lutherans. It's about a Lutheran witness for the whole church and for all sinners with ears to hear. It's a book about the big theological ideas the evangelical reformers of the 16th century used as a lens for understanding God's work in Christ.
