“Luke’s gospel cannot be detached from its purpose and goal: to create and nourish Christians. That goal was accomplished in the first center in the same way it is accomplished today: through evangelization and catechesis leading to and from Baptism and participation in the Lord’s Supper. This process of Christian formation takes place in a church… Luke wrote his gospel for the church, to be heard by the church in faith, for catechumens like Theophilus and us too.”

Arthur A. Just, Luke 1:1-9:50, CC (St. Louis, Concordia, 1996), 2.
