Abstract

The contemporary liturgical-confessional revival within the Lutheran Church with its increasing emphasis on private confession and absolution has prompted this study. To this writer's knowledge there has been no previous study made within American Lutheranism on the history and development of confession and absolution with its changing theologies and practice.
