This volume provides two of Martin Luther's most significant
writings on prayer. In Little Prayer Book (1522), Luther seeks to
reform the theology and practice of prayer in clear and
understandable language for all people by encouraging simple,
direct prayer to God, who promises to hear the one who prays.
Luther focuses on the Ten Commandments, Apostles' Creed, and Lord's
Prayer, giving his treatment of prayer a catechetical feel that
would later provide the structure of his catechisms.In A Simple Way
to Pray (1535), Luther offers his barber and all other readers
insights into his own prayer life. He organizes his comments around
the seven petitions of the prayer Jesus taught to his disciples. He
also uses the Ten Commandments and the Apostles' Creed as resources
for prayer. He sets out to "kindle a fire in the heart" and
increase the reader's eagerness for prayer.This volume is excerpted
from The Annotated Luther series, volume 4 (Pastoral Writings).
Each volume and selection in the series contains new introductions,
extensive annotations, illustrations, and notes to help shed light
on Luther's context and to interpret his writings for today.
