When Martin Luther wrote the Small Catechism in 1529, his goal was to make the core ideas of the faith accessible for ordinary people. It was an amazing new idea and one that has stood the test of time. His method was a simple one – get people talking about the faith in their homes! For the 16th century, where most people had no access to content like this, it was a radically progressive concept.
But for decades, people have been looking for ways to both honor Martin Luther’s Small Catechism and make it fresher and more accessible for today’s audiences. This book does both. Using Luther’s Small Catechism as a framework, each section has Luther’s original words in straightforward English with an added section for each of his answers, “An Answer in Today’s Words.” The addition of Introductions and Conclusions add perspective and address topics Luther didn’t address in his time, expanding Luther’s material for the times in which we live in concise but helpful ways.
Adding clarity and in Dave Daubert’s accessible style, this book is ideal for confirmation classes, new members, small groups and anyone wanting to think about the basics of the faith in a fresh and accessible way.
