In this unique volume, the reader will find Luther's most significant sermons for Lent and Easter through Trinity Sunday (including Christ's Ascension and Pentecost), following the church year's most significant lectionary readings associated with the major feasts and fasts. Luther wrote thousands of pages of exposition during his life, but this book makes available in a single volume a core collection of his writing for this liturgical season, featuring Scripture readings that include the most familiar events from the life of Jesus. Other volumes in this series include Luther's sermons for Advent and Christmas Day, and his sermons for the Sunday after Christmas Day, New Year's Day, and Epiphany. These writings represent the heart of Luther's thoughts on the Christian faith and his ideas for practical faith in that life.
