Luther's Small Catechism is an accessible introduction to the very basics of the Christian faith, appropriate for any Christians who pray the Lord's Prayer and profess the Apostles' Creed (not just Lutheran Christians). While designed to match the worship materials of ELCA Lutherans, there is no denominational or political slant here: it's simply the most current translation (1988, 2000) of the original texts into contemporary English. Includes morning, evening, and mealtime prayers.

Beautiful way to get the Small Catechism into digital hands! The small cost for the additional illustrations, notes, and catechism is totally worth it and just as great.
