From its earliest days, Augsburg Fortress Publishers has created resources that communicate the good news of God’s liberating grace. While our origins are rooted in the always-reforming Lutheran expression of the Christian faith, our commitment to invite people to know and follow the way of Jesus continues to respond to our rapidly changing world. Through our various imprints we publish worship, music, curricular, and devotional resources and distinctive books for congregations, higher-education learning and scholars, children, and adult general readers. In all our work we seek to deepen faith, nourish the spirit, and enrich the life of the Christian church, the communities it serves, and the wider society.
In our ministry as the publishing house of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, we create substantive and innovative materials to support the ministries of faith communities in communicating the good news of God's liberating grace.
To meet the evolving needs of Lutheran communities, we continually invest in the development of new ministry resources, seeking ongoing input from theologians, educators, church leaders, and church members.
