1908 - The Wauwatosa Gospel

Hoenecke died on March 3, and Professor John Schaller was called to replace him as director and professor of dogmatics (doctrine), homiletics (preaching), and pastoral theology. Koehler, Pieper, and Schaller served together from 1908-1920 and became known for their theological approach, now known as the “Wauwatosa Theology” or “Wauwatosa Gospel.” In truth, their approach was simply a return to Martin Luther’s approach.
