This religious classic is here made available in a revised and updated paperback edition. A unique devotional for daily meditation, it dwells on the great themes of Christian piety and is drawn from Martin Luther's sermons and other works. The readings are arranged according to the church year and organized under a central theme for each week. In addition to the devotions for each day of the year, select readings are provided for Thanksgiving, the Feast of the Reformation, and a Day of Penitence. Each daily meditation concludes with a prayer, a biblical verse, or a question to ponder. Additionally, the revised edition offers:
• contemporary North American English translation
• revised designations, familiar to North Americans, for the seasons of the church year
• the NRSV text of most biblical passages
• the addition of Luther’s daily prayers
