Synopsis

Timeless insights from one of the most important people in church history. Some people value good works so much that they overlook faith in Christ. Faith should be first.… It is faith—without good works and prior to good works—that takes us to heaven. We come to God through faith alone. —Martin LutherResounding across the centuries, Martin Luther’s prolific writings as a pastor, theologian, scholar, Bible translator, father, and more, remain powerful and richly relevant. Faith Alone is a treasury of accessible devotionals taken from Luther’s best writings and sermons from the years 1513 through 1546. This carefully updated translation retains the meaning, tone, and imagery of Luther’s works. Through daily readings, Luther’s straightforward approach challenges you to a more thoughtful faith. Read one brief section a day or explore themes using the subject index in the back of the book. Faith Alone will deepen your understanding of Scripture and help you more fully appreciate the mystery of faith.

Goodreads review by Rev Reads on December 27, 2017

If you have never read Luther, this daily devotional is a great place to start. The editor has complied a wonderful collection of Luther's teachings that are highly relevant to the 21st century life. Luther speaks the grace of Christ into our lives that is only surpassed by the Word of God. The read......more

Although I respect the Lutheran Church and Martin Luther, I found very little that was helpful in this book. I looked forward to reading it but was sadly disappointed. Maybe it was the translator's fault.......more

Goodreads review by Frode on January 01, 2021

On December 31st, I read the last daily devotion in Faith Alone. It is a devotional taken from the writings and sermons of Martin Luther. Each day there is a title, a Scripture, and then three to five paragraphs from Luther, translated into English of course. The Bible used is the NIV. Since there......more
