“To be absolutely clear: I am not Lutheran because I am ethnically Northern European (I’m not), or culturally mid-western (I’m definitely not), or even because I am devoted to the institution of the ELCA (that comes and goes).

“I am Lutheran because it is my theological identity.

“Why? Because grace is the center of gravity in Lutheran theology. Not personal righteousness. Not discipleship. Not morality. Not piety. Not progressive sanctification. Not activism. GRACE. And the thing that separates grace from all of the other things I just listed is that with grace, God is the determining factor, not us and our efforts. When anything other than grace is the starting point in my relationship to God or in my identity, I am screwed because it means that my goodness or righteousness is the determining factor.”
