"On Our Way Rejoicing!":
Kelly Fryer, Lutheran (ELCA) pastor, and Timothy F. Lull, beloved Lutheran theologian, have conspired to produce a stunningly relevant and practical addition to the burgeoning literature of evangelism, telling the "Good News" of Jesus Christ. Fryer, a graduate of the Lutheran Theological Seminary in Philadelphia (where Dr. Lull commenced his teaching career)is a sought-after specialist in evangelism today. Despite his untimely death in May of 2003, Doctor Lull continues to have a powerful, shaping impact on the life, spirit, and joy among Lutherans in the USA and across the globe. Co-author (with Dr. Martinus Luther) of LUTHER'S BASIC THEOLOGICAL WRITINGS, Lull has always combined a keen ecumenical insight with a sense of urgency about proclaiming a Biblical Faith in a world come of age. Indeed, one of his last official acts as a Doctor of the Church was a cordial audience with Pope John Paul II in Rome. Those students, colleagues, and friends who will never forget this Blessed Timothy know that in the afterlife his next official act was to compare notes with Luther and Pope John XXIII, among others--including not a few former San Francisco Giants. Though brief of stature, Tim will surely be recalled as an Evangelical Giant, both a drum major for Justice and a champion of the Good News in Jesus Christ. This book, shared with a contemporary pastor who is also Chaplain to a Catholic university, is ample proof. May it continue the transforming process within the Whole Church always....and all ways!
