Luther's Small Catechism: A Manual for Discipleship

Who are disciples? What is a life of discipleship? This book answers those important questions by looking at Luther's Small Catechism as a field manual for how to live in faith and serve in love according to God's commandments. Lutherans have a unique view of discipleship. Disciples of Jesus Christ continue in His Word, living by faith in the promises of God and serving the neighbor with love according to God's commandments. This is the essential aspect of a Christian's vocation. Author John Pless capitalizes on the Lutheran view of discipleship to equip pastors and laity to better utilize Luther's Small Catechism as a guide for a life of discipleship.
