Books Every Lutheran Should Read

This is a collection of books that every literate Lutheran should read. Many of them are theology. Some are fiction. Some are by Martin Luther or about him. Some are patristic theology that informed Luther. All of them teach us about how God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself.
