Both Concordia Journal and www.concordiatheology.org provide theological resources to inspire the vigorous life of the mind in service to the Gospel. Issued quarterly by the faculty of Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, Missouri, the Concordia Journal is the successor of Lehre und Wehre (1855-1929), begun by C. F. W. Walther, a founder of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. Lehre und Wehre was absorbed by the Concordia Theological Monthly (1930-1972) which was also published by the faculty of Concordia Seminary as the official theological periodical of the Synod. Archives of the Concordia Journal may be accessed on www.concordiatheology.org.
