In the newest volume of the Concordia Commentary s In the newest volume of the Concordia Commentary series, Judges 1-9, Rev. Dr. Mark E. Braun leads readers deeply into one of Scripture’s most complex and challenging books, providing the clarity needed for confident preaching, teaching, and study.

Even amid the book’s violence and disorder, Braun traces the “golden thread of the Gospel,” showing how these narratives ultimately point beyond flawed judges to the perfect and lasting Savior and King.

O God, on this day You once taught the hearts of Y O God, on this day You once taught the hearts of Your faithful people by sending them the light of Your Holy Spirit. Grant us in our day by the same Spirit to have a right understanding in all things and evermore to rejoice in His holy consolation; through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
"When the day of Pentecost arrived, God worked one "When the day of Pentecost arrived, God worked one of the most dramatic miracles of all time—and three thousand less dramatic, but no less miraculous, other miracles. When the day of Pentecost arrived, Christ fulfilled His promise to clothe His faithful followers with power from on high—and the Church was born. And when the Day of Pentecost arrives, Christians celebrate one of our three greatest festivals of the year: the outpouring of the Holy Spirit." —Rev. Dr. Carl Fickenscher, Looking Forward to Sunday Morning
"Two spiritual truths help us to deal with shaming "Two spiritual truths help us to deal with shaming speech from our fellow Christians: the truth that our status and worth is not achieved by us but ascribed to us by God the Father though our union with Jesus and our faith in Him, and the truth that the devil is a slanderer who is set on discounting our spiritual status as children of the heavenly Father by destroying our faith in Him and His Word." —Rev. Dr. John W. Kleinig, From Shame to Glory: God's Surprising Remedy for Injustice and Failure
"The Spirit rests upon those who prophesy truth in "The Spirit rests upon those who prophesy truth in the name of the Lord. With the  inauguration of Pentecost— the dramatic outpouring of the Holy Spirit—the proclamation of Jesus is unleashed in a myriad of languages. Prophecies, visions, and dreams inspired by the Spirit testified to the mighty works and authority of God in Jesus Christ. Divine truths would now shape and inspire the hearts, minds, and speech of those who follow Jesus." —Worship Planning Book, Year A
"We should be focused on teaching students, not te "We should be focused on teaching students, not teaching lessons. Teaching students means paying attention to what they are actually learning, while teaching lessons focuses only on whether the instructor covered the material." —Rev. Brandon Metcalf

"John Kleinig invites readers to identify how sham "John Kleinig invites readers to identify how shame has impacted their lives. He then engages them in a conversation, which is partly aimed at understanding shame but  is mostly directed toward a single and recurring theme—Christ is our hope and our glory. As Kleinig puts it, “God’s remedy for shame is not honor but glory.” No quick fixes are offered, because no one plan fits for all the shamed. Rather, we are pointed to Christ, who engages with people “graciously and mercifully, respectfully and gently,” and whose shame on the cross opens the pathway to glory." 
—Andrew Pfeiffer, lecturer emeritus, Australian Lutheran College, Adelaide, South Australia
In a culture obsessed with self-discovery and pers In a culture obsessed with self-discovery and personal authenticity, we've been taught to look inward for identity, purpose, and fulfillment. But what if this inward gaze is the very thing keeping us trapped, anxious, and unfulfilled?

Drawing on Martin Luther's transformative insight that Christians live "in Christ through faith and in the neighbor through love," author Joshua Pfeiffer offers a radical alternative to our age of expressive individualism. This isn't about self-improvement—it's about self-transcendence.

Lift Your Eyes charts a compelling path outward: upward to God in faith and gratitude, outward to our neighbors in love and service, and forward in joyful anticipation of resurrection. Grounded in Scripture and Lutheran theology, Pfeiffer reveals how the freedom we desperately seek comes not from looking within, but from lifting our eyes beyond ourselves.

Lift Your Eyes: How to Live Outside Yourself is available now.

"Pastor Joshua Pfeiffer echoes Luther’s insistence "Pastor Joshua Pfeiffer echoes Luther’s insistence that Christian life is not self-enclosed; it is a life that is lived outside of the self through faith in Christ and through love in service to the neighbor. The Christian lives with feet firmly planted in creation but with eyes fixed on the hope that is ours because Jesus is the Lord over death. Pastor Pfeiffer demonstrates how our faith and the hope that it brings does not evacuate Christians from the world but enlivens believers for their callings in creation."

— John T. Pless, Assistant Professor of Pastoral Ministry and Mission, Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Indiana
“What was Luke trying to communicate in his Gospel “What was Luke trying to communicate in his Gospel story? What makes Luke tick, as opposed to Matthew or Mark or John? God employed particular individuals and their gifts and abilities as He inspired His Word. If the Gospels seem to blend together, we are missing out on valuable insights and lessons, and we are not reading each Gospel first on its own terms and in its own context. … I hope you will begin to think like Luke and that you will come to appreciate Luke and his craft as he was conveying this wonderful, divinely inspired message of our salvation, our deliverance, in Jesus Christ!” —Dr. Andrew Das, Dinner with the Doctor

Dinner with the Doctor: Luke's Gospel for the Hungry will be available June 9. Preorder your copy at the link in the comments.
"Lift Your Eyes is a much-needed pastoral guide fo "Lift Your Eyes is a much-needed pastoral guide for Christians shaped by a culture that urges constant self-focus. Joshua Pfeiffer redirects our gaze upward to Christ and outward to those around us, drawing deeply from Scripture and Luther’s theology. This is not a self-improvement book offering empty promises, but an invitation to true rest in Christ’s righteousness—freeing you to love others in ways that truly count." 

— Marcus "FLAME" Gray, FLAME, GRAMMY®-nominated and Stellar Award-winning hip hop artist; author of Extra Nos: Discovering Grace Outside Myself and Because Jesus Taught It: Christianity Through the Eyes of the Church Fathers

Lift Your Eyes: How to Live Outside Yourself by Rev. Joshua Pfeiffer will be available May 19.
