Here is a list of all sorts of Lutheran shops & Lutheran stores: Lutheran artists, Lutheran crafters, Lutheran craftsmen, Lutheran coffee roasters, Lutheran cookie-makers, etc!
Am I saying we should only shop from Lutherans? Of course not! Still, this is a neat list to peruse, and specialty businesses can be hard enough to find. Anyway, it’s worth knowing about artists, crafters, and shops that share our Lutheran beliefs.
By all means, also check out denominational publishing houses like Concordia Publishing House that sell fine arts, decor, gift items, etc. Also try searching stores using “Lutheran”—you never know what you may find. Etsy always has neat things under Lutheran! 🙂
(Lutheran writers, you may also be interested in my list of Lutheran Freelance Writer Support, including things like graphic designers, indexers, etc.)
