Publisher Description: Does your knowledge of Martin Luther's writings start and end with the hymn "A Mighty Fortress Is Our God"? As we celebrate the 500th anniversary of the Reformation he put into motion, we discover a Martin Luther who was one of history's most colorful and influential figures. His story is well known, but his powerful writing is often unfamiliar to us. This illustrated introductory guide to Luther's life, theology, and works introduces and summarizes his major writings, such as The Bondage of the Will and On the Councils and the Church, and includes, with annotations, the complete Ninety-Five Theses. Stephen Nichols also gives encouragement and guidance for studying Luther's ethical writings, "table talk," hymns, and sermons. Includes a select guide for further reading. |
