| dc.description.abstract | In Continuing In His Word, Prof. John M. Brenner presents a detailed historical overview of the Wisconsin Lutheran Quarterly (WLQ), tracing its development from its founding in 1904 to its centennial in 2003. He highlights the journal’s role in providing theological education, defending confessional Lutheran doctrine, and addressing contemporary challenges in the church. Brenner explores the WLQ’s transition from German to English, its engagement with doctrinal controversies such as election, church and ministry, and fellowship, and its contributions to mission work, worship, and pastoral practice. He emphasizes the influence of the Wauwatosa Theology and the journal’s commitment to sola scriptura. The essay concludes with reflections on future challenges facing Lutheranism and the continued importance of the WLQ in upholding biblical truth and supporting parish pastors. This retrospective affirms the Quarterly’s enduring value as a theological resource and confessional witness.
