The Priesthood of Believers by George H. Gerberding
āLuther taught that every true believer is a spiritual priest, is as near to the great Head of the Church as any official priest can be, and is equally entitled to the promise and gift of the Holy Ghost. He may exercise priestly functions among his fellow men and ought to do what he can to promote their wellbeing. This teaching of Luther was calculated to awaken a joyous consciousness and energy in the common Christian calling.ā ā George Gerberding

Reminiscent Reflections of a Youthful Octogenarian by George Henry Gerberding
āI fear those ministers among us who seem to be terribly afraid of Pietism. They do not explain the distinction between a false and a true Pietism. To have ever a greater and deeper measure of the latter is surely one of our greatest needs. It fits so beautifully into our Lutheran system that it ought to be a part of its warp and woof. Indeed it is the very essence, the heart and life of true Lutheranism. God give us more of it!

A Man Spoke, The World Listened: The Story of Walter A. Maier
āThe voice had an extraordinary range, for each week it was heard around the world. In Shanghai it introduced a Chinese highway engineer to Christianity. In Illinois it caused a woman who as driving to an illicit tryst to make a U-turn on the highway. In Poland it preached anything but party line to a Communist functionary. And to millions of others across the earth, the voice had become a Sunday institution.ā From the Prologue.
