Who Created World Lutheranism by Samuel Trexler is a comprehensive study of the origins and development of Lutheranism as a global religious movement. The book focuses on the role of John A. Morehead, a key figure in the spread of Lutheranism throughout the world. Morehead was a missionary, theologian, and educator who worked tirelessly to promote Lutheranism and establish Lutheran institutions in countries such as India, Japan, and China. Trexler's book explores Morehead's life and work, as well as the broader historical and cultural contexts in which he operated. The author examines the various theological and political factors that shaped Lutheranism's global expansion, from the Reformation in 16th-century Europe to the challenges posed by colonialism, imperialism, and modernity in the 19th and 20th centuries. Drawing on a wide range of sources, including archival materials, personal correspondence, and contemporary accounts, Trexler provides a detailed and nuanced analysis of Lutheranism's complex history. He also offers insights into the challenges facing the Lutheran Church today, including issues of diversity, globalization, and interfaith dialogue. Overall, Who Created World Lutheranism is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of Christianity, global missions, or the intersection of religion and culture. It is a thought-provoking and engaging work that sheds new light on a fascinating and often overlooked aspect of world history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
