Concordia Publishing House

Concordia Publishing House (CPH) is not an author but the official publishing arm of the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod (LCMS), founded in 1869 and headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri. It is the world's largest distinctly Lutheran publishing house and the oldest publishing company west of the Mississippi River, producing hymnals, devotional resources like Portals of Prayer, and children's books known as Arch Books[1].
