The Augsburg Confession has throughout my days in ministry been a source of great comfort and occasional rebuke. It has consistently taken my eyes off of myself and the world and placed them firmly on the Christ of the cross and empty tomb. It was my initial idea to hand out copies of the Augsburg Confession to our parishioners as part of our yearlong celebration of the Lutheran Reformation. It occurred to me that there are likely many in our pews who are unfamiliar with this quintessential Lutheran document. It is also my desire to pursue potential distribution of the AC as an evangelistic endeavor as well. When I looked for published copies, they all proved to be cost prohibitive. So, to allow for inexpensive, personal duplication, I decided to reformat the document in an easily printable format. The document can be downloaded with this link.
It is my hope that God will comfort others with the Augustana as He has me.
