Eric Gritsch

  • Toxic Spirituality : Four Enduring Temptations Of Christian Faith

    $22.00

    G.K. Chesterton long ago observed that real Christianity had in some ways never really been tried. Eric Gritsch, a renowned historian, a pastor, and a theologian for half a century, offers Christianity a reality check, exposing four historical movements that have weakened and abused the core of the Christian tradition. These movements represent wayward views on the relationships between Christians and Jews; between the authority of Scripture and tradition; between the church and worldy power; and between faith and morals. Readers encounter these wayward traditions in their historical trajectories, in the ways these traditions have diminished the gospel, and in the ways they have been impediments of an effective contemporary Christian witness. They represent the enduring temptation to be “like God” (Gen. 3:5), a temptation marked by a zeal for secure, unchanging, and ultimate Christian life on Earth. The author confronts these wayward traditions with the enduring challenge of faithful, cruciform, penultimate discipleship in the time between the first and second advent of Christ.

  • Fortress Introduction To Lutheranism

    $27.00

    A helpful and accessible guide to Lutheranism’s history and central tenents, with numerous photos and illustrations. Small wonder that many are confused about Lutheranism’s historical origins, doctrinal affirmation, and ethical directives. Even Lutherans themselves — maintains, Eric Gritsch, a leading authority on the Lutheran tradition — are not clear about their identity. Some Lutheran consider themselves heirs to a reform movement, others see themselves as members of a denomination or ecclesial institution, and still others are confounded by the tension and miss the tradition’s thrust.
