Common experience is intertwined with insights from Luther's preaching and teaching, presenting Christ and His Gospel as the source of encouragement and hope.In this book, Thomas Peters reminds us not to be distracted by life's abstractions -- the myriad of voices and influences that seek to pull us from God's Word. Instead, we Cherish the Word. Cherish His Word, and look to it as a fountain of inspiration and support -- still as appropriate today as it was in Luther's time.
