The study examines how Finnish Lutheran priests contributed rhetorically to the war effort against the Soviet Union in the Continuation War 1941-1944. The war was emplotted using six dramatic typologies: apocalypse, holy war & crusade, election & mission, jeremiad, the war within, obedience and mortification.
