  • Lutheran theologian Gerhard Forde proposed a radical Lutheran identity for the newly formed Evangelical Lutheran Church in America in 1987. Integral to the concept of radical Lutheranism is the inherent obligation for the church to be radically different from other mainline Protestant churches, and to be an active agent for social justice within American culture. This analysis takes a fresh look at Forde’s recommendations in today’s context. It suggests that the time is ripe for change in our current culture, that the ELCA is primed for change more than it was three decades after its formation, and that it can become a formidable change agent for our time as a role model for all mainline Protestant churches in America. Based on an understanding of key Lutheran doctrine, Forde outlined a theological approach to social justice that is even more relevant now than it was when he articulated his vision for a unique Lutheran church identity. Forde’s historically conservative approach to Lutheran social action is a contemporary guideline on how the ELCA can lead change efforts in our current environment.
