Spring 2020
This issue of Lutherans Engage the World is framed by two statements: “[Teaching] the grace of God in Christ for our salvation,” and “We show the love of Christ to people who are hurting and in need.” This is what making disciples for life looks like — witness and mercy here, there and everywhere to hungry souls. Take a break to sit down with this issue and see how God is working through His church!
In Christ,

Associate Executive Director, LCMS Communications
