This prayer companion, helpful in personal worship and in prayer groups, offers a biographical sketch of Martin Luther, outlines the major themes of the Lutheran faith, and contains 15 meditations based on stories about and writings by Martin Luther. Each meditation is based on a specific theme and offers prayers and readings from Martin Luther. Scripture readings and guided reflections such as repeated short prayers and mantras, lectio divina or "divine studying," journal writing, and prayerful action are used to supplement and give perspective to the readings.
