What we’re working on now…  We’re putting the finishing touches on two new Christmas cards and editing a revised and expanded edition of Prof. John Pless’s DIDACHE. First published in 1996, DIDACHE is, in the words of Prof. Pless, “a manual for adult catechesis using the Holy Scriptures, the Small Catechism, and the hymnal (at that time, Lutheran Worship)….I’ll bring it in sync with the Lutheran Service Book and add a few things I’ve learned from teaching Catechetics these last thirteen years at Concordia Theological Seminary.” Look for more information on these projects in the coming months!

Also, we have just a few 8″ x 10″ prints remaining from the first run of Ed Riojas’ Office of the Holy Ministry artwork. Our customers have found these to be stunning artwork for a pastor’s office as well as unique, inexpensive gifts for ordinations, installations, or other occasions.

Do you know someone who would love to learn Gregorian chant as found in The Brotherhood Prayer Book or the significance of liturgical worship as described in Ceremony and Celebration, The Conduct of the Service, and An Explanation of the Common Service? What about an expectant mother who would benefit from the comforting prayers of Starck’s Motherhood Prayers for All Occasions? Or someone who looks every year for Christmas cards with substance and without dancing elves?

Basically, do you know someone who would like our theological books and ecclesiastical greeting cards, but you just don’t know what to choose or whether they already own it? Consider a gift certificate from Emmanuel Press. Whether it’s a gift for a friend, family member, seminary student, or pastor, just give us the details and we’ll take care of the gift giving for you.
