Luther and Christian Life

“Carl Trueman has achieved a tremendous feat: not only has he given us a volume that is scholarly and historically nuanced while being accessible and refreshingly contemporary; he also managed to capture the brilliance and audacity of Martin Luther in a relatively short space. Trueman should be commended for presenting a Luther who is distinct from us in many ways and yet a Luther from whom we can learn so much.” Kevin DeYoung

“It is no easy task to write a small volume summarizing the theology and importance for the Christian life of Martin Luther. However, Trueman has done so magnificently with poise and resolution. Highly recommended as an excellent introduction to an outstanding Christian and human being.” Michael A. G. Haykin
