The great reformer, Martin Luther, was a prolific writer and theologian, but as he visited local congregations, he realized that the people (and the pastors!) were in need of an easy-to-use study guide to use as a catechism to explain the core tenets of the Christian faith.  In 1529, he wrote The Small Catechism which has been used ever since to teach young people and adults alike about the Ten Commandments, Apostles’ Creed, the Lord’s Prayer, the sacraments, and living a life of faith.  But, can a 500 year old text still be truly meaningful to us today?  Join us on Sunday nights for conversations as we explore the Small Catechism text through the analysis of prominent Luther scholars using the book by Heart Conversations with Martin Luther’s Small Catechism.
