Description
Martin Luther’s theology of prayer is informed by his theology of justification by faith. Full reliance on the merits of Christ for salvation causes Luther to base even his prayers on trust. This sectional examines The Large Catechism, Luther’s Little Prayer Book and his Treatise on Good Works, as well as select prayers to show how Luther’s theology of justification flows into his theology of prayer and his own prayer life. This sectional will also explore how Luther’s trust-based theology of prayer benefits those praying in a secular world.
