Pastoral Theology was the first confessional Lutheran handbook for the pastoral ministry published in the United States and remains, to this day, a very important work from a historical perspective. C.F.W. Walther explains the “how” and “why” of what a pastor does. This is the only complete translation of this influential work by Walther.
Today, pastors will appreciate this practical work of careful biblical theology and application of Scripture's teachings for the Church’s ministry. This volume is a guide for all who are involved in matters of the pastoral ministry and concerned with how it is carried out in a faithful, biblical manner.
