CPH celebrates 150 years

USA – Concordia Publishing House (CPH), the publishing house of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, celebrated its 150^th anniversary on September 11, 2019.

“We are one of the top Christian publishing houses in the world and the largest Lutheran publishing house in the world,” noted Dr. Bruce Kintz, President and CEO of CPH, during anniversary celebrations. “Everything we do here, we do to the glory of God, God has watched over us. He continues to give us an imagination about how we can continue to serve our churches and schools and families with resources faithful to the Scriptures and the Lutheran Confessions.”

Concordia Publishing House was founded in 1869, and is well-recognized in Lutheran Church–Canada circles as the publisher of the Lutheran Service Book, The Small Catechism, and The Lutheran Study Bible. They are also the publisher of the devotional series Portals of Prayer as well as the popular Arch Books for children. In addition to this, they offer multiple other resources, including fiction, non-fiction, academic works, Bible studies, Sunday School and Vacation Bible School curriculum, music, church supplies, and more.

You can even get CPH apps, like the Small Catechism or Portals of Prayer, on your phone. You can also get more out of your resources with additional programming online, with author-led video studies through CPH FaithCourses.
