“My conscience is captive to the Word of God. Thus I cannot and will not recant, because acting against one’s conscience is neither safe nor sound. Here I stand; I can do no other. God help me.” Martin Luther

Mission Statement of 15thirty Ministries LLC

At 15thirty Ministries LLC, our mission is to provide accessible resources for individuals seeking to deepen their understanding of Holy Scripture, with a focus on the teachings of Martin Luther and other great reformers. Grounded in the Lutheran Confession of Faith, presented at the Diet of Augsburg in 1530, we uphold the belief that the Bible is entirely true and that salvation is a gift of God’s grace through faith alone.

We strive to make Luther’s Small Catechism, the Unaltered Augsburg Confession and the confessional writings of the Book of Concord central tools in exploring core Christian doctrines such as the Ten Commandments, the Apostles’ Creed, the Lord’s Prayer, and the sacraments. Our content is created from a Lutheran perspective but is intended for people of all denominations, faiths, and even those who are atheists or agnostics.

Our goal is to share the message that no one can earn God’s love or favor on their own; it is through God’s grace, by the work of the Holy Spirit, that we are saved. By promoting the study of the confessional writings of the Book of Concord we aim to make the teachings of Scripture clear, relevant, and meaningful for all.

The Mission of 15thirty Ministries LLC is to spread the ideas of the Lutheran faith throughout the world through online ministry.

Vision

There is a large misunderstanding or lack of understanding of what the Lutheran faith believes and teaches. The vision of 15thirty is to bridge this gap and bring the ideas of Martin Luther and the like front and center to everyday conversation. We plan on doing this by being an all-encompassing resource for people wanting to learn more about the Lutheran faith.
