| Abstract | Examines five events in Germany that led to the establishment of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod: the rise of rationalism in the Lutheran State Church of Germany; the changes, or anticipated changes, that resulted from the Prussian Union attempted by Frederick William III, king of Prussia; the activities of a group of ministerial students (who called themselves "the Awakened") at the University of Leipzig; the poor economy in Germany in the early 1800s; and the rise in prominence of Dresden pastor Martin Stephan. |
