Educational Philosophy of Luther Classical College
Before the Greeks began philosophizing, when Romulus had barely built Rome, King Hezekiah “did what was good and right and true before the Lord his God” (2 Chronicles 31:20), beautifying the temple and purging it of idolatry.
American Christianity: Origins and Introductions
Why have we decided to take up this task of chronicling and introducing the various movements in American Christianity? The answer is very simple. We must know from where we have come to see where we are.
A Word from the President

Toward a Lutheran Theology of Beauty
The depth of God’s love for us is seen in the work of the Suffering Servant, Christ. God sends the One who shall become disfigured and who shall be marred (Is. 52:14) in order to restore His people to glory and beauty.
Te Laudamus Hymnal Supplement
