Crazy Talk and Life Among Lutherans are just two of the new books we have in our book section. If you haven't browsed our bookstore lately today just might be a great day to do that.
Crazy Talk
"Have you ever listened to two theologians talk? If so, we hope the damage wasn't permanent. If not, thank God." This quote is from the introduction to one of the newest books available from Old Lutheran. Crazy Talk, A not-so-stuffy dictionary of Thological Terms. The book was edited by Rolf A. Jacobson, an associate professor of Old Testament at Luther Seminary. Just one of the definitions: Protestant \PRAH-dih-stuhnt\ n. A Christian belonging to one of many churches that disagreed with the Roman Catholic Church and therefore afreed to form other churches, which in turn disagree with each other.

Life among the Lutherans
Based on Garrison Keillor's Lake Wobegon monologues, Life among the Lutherans is a collection of stories about the struggles of ordinary people in an imperfect world, the life and work of the pastor who leads them, and the church to whose high standards they aspire in the small town they call home. The stories in Life among the Lutherans reflect everything Keillor fans have come to expect of this master storyteller. Some are familiar, including the quintessentially Lutheran "95 Theses" from Lake Wobegon Days, others are new. Laugh out loud about the church directory filled with photos that are just plain awful. Share the moment when Pastor Ingqvist receives a leather-bound copy of his sermons. Keillor's command of every little detail of life in Lake Wobegon is bound to entertain, surprise, and make readers - even those who aren't Lutheran - feel right at home in the mythical community where "all the women are strong, all the men are good looking, and all the children are above average."
