Excellent article and good promotion for one of the most orthodox authors in American Lutheranism today as well as for two fine institutions of higher learning.

Good reading in this 480th anniversary year of the Confession of Augsburg.

Quite a number have expressed the conviction that Catholics and Lutherans believe essentially the same things

Only that little thing about forensic justification, by faith alone.

61. Why sayest thou, that you art righteous by faith only?

Not that I am acceptable to God on account of the worthiness of my faith, but because only the satisfaction, righteousness and holiness of Christ is my righteousness before God and I can receive the same and make it my own in no other way than by faith only.

one of the most orthodox authors in American Lutheranism today. . . .

If by that you mean "The Rev." Dr. Sarah Hinlicky Wilson, that title alone disqualifies her from being orthodox.
