{"product_id":"9781964419121","title":"The Essential Nestingen","description":"\u003cp\u003eJames Arne Nestingen (1945-2022) was a beloved pastor, seminary professor, and most of all a confessor and preacher of the Gospel of Jesus. After he retired from teaching church history at Luther Seminary in Saint Paul, Nestingen taught at Saint Paul Lutheran Seminary and was a guest lecturer at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne and at the seminary of the Mekane Yesus Church in Addis Ababa. He was a senior scholar in residence for 1517 and was in demand as a conference speaker. He was an active participant in the formation of the North American Lutheran Church (NALC) and served as a representative of that church body on the official dialogue between the NALC, the Lutheran Church-Canada, and The Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. He will be remembered for his passion for clear Gospel preaching, his incisive theology, and his Midwestern, Norwegian humor.\u003cbr\u003eThe essays in \u003ci\u003eThe Essential Nestingen: Essays on Preaching, Catechism, and the Reformation \u003c\/i\u003erepresent his scholarly but at the same accessible work in these three areas of his research and teaching. Spanning over three decades of his ministry as a teacher of the church, these essays find a common focus in Christ who is the end of the law for righteousness (Romans 10:4). They remain timely and serve not only as a testimony to Nestingen erudite scholarship but as a resource for the edification for a new generation of both pastors and lay people who share Nestingen passion for “handing over the goods” that he found in Luther and the Lutheran Confessions.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"1517 Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65546695573853,"sku":null,"price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/3893\/2573\/files\/9781964419121.jpg?v=1790534215","url":"https:\/\/shop.gazellebookservices.co.uk\/products\/9781964419121","provider":"Gazelle Book Services","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
