Abstract

This dissertation had several objectives. The chief objective was simply to describe the history of attitudes within the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod toward life insurance. There has been an oral tradition within the Missouri Synod which states that although the Synod had once opposed life insurance it no longer did so because life insurance has changed. The first objective, therefore, has been to try to determine the validity of that oral tradition.
