Written by a working journalist who covered the conflict in the Missouri Synod and the walkout from Concordia Seminary in 1974, this is as much about that conflict as it is about J.A.O. Preus, the President of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod at the time. It is a study of ecclesiastical power politics and an in-the-field report of the battle for the Bible as well as a revealing portrayal of a man who was willing to risk his church in the cause of orthodoxy.
