The Lutheran Book Of Prayer

An outstanding book. I use this every morning and every night; so many amazing prayers and items essential to the Lutheran faith (i.e. Nicene/Athanasian Creeds).

Excellent resource. Daily Prayers for a full month. Plus prayers for all sorts of needs. Baptismal/communion/confession prayers as well

Copyright in 1951, Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, MO - Twenty-Third printing - Printed in The United States of America I have been enjoying this book since receiving it. It has daily prayers for morning and evening (one page each). The book starts with a preface that will prepare you and explain the usefulness intended of this book of prayer. page 7 is The Lord's Prayer. The Prayers for Mornings and Evenings starts with Sunday morning page 10 and continues through four weeks to page 65. So there is a month of non-repeating suggested prayer. It ends that section with a general morning and evening prayer.(pg 66 & 67) Then Prayers for Certain Times and Seasons starts on page 70 and continues to page 114. These are very useful and some are very specific as to needs. This section includes "Holy Week" Monday through Easter Sunday. Prayers Pertaining to National Affairs begins on page 116 and continues to page 131. This section includes National Holidays as well as some in general such as "In Days of Unemployment" pg 122. Prayers for Various Occasions in Individual and Family Life starts on page 134 and continue to page 181. This section continues with Selected Psalms 182-189. Then continues with various specific prayers including; a list of The Ten Commandments and a dividing of The Lord's Prayer into it's Petitions with explanations. You will never recite The Lord's Prayer with better understanding than after reading this. Next is Christian questions and Their Answers on pages 208-211. The book ends with a Table of Contents and a few blank pages useful for personal notes or prayer reminders. Over all this is a very valuable and useful book for a beginning Christian or a long time Devote Established Christian. Thumbs up and may God bless you for reading this complete review.

This is the best study Bible on the market. You don't need to be Lutheran; this study Bible is equally applicable to most any non-denominational Christian church as well.

Live this book. Very meaningful prayers. Especially love the morning and evening prayers that are available for a monthly cycle

I bought four of these for Christmas, for each family member. We were able to say the Christmas prayer together as well as some others since. Of course the prayers aren't meant to be an end-all prayer manual. Luther's humble heart and lavish love for God however leads the way by example, helping to develop a mindset we need to have, to stand in awe of our Savior and Father. I love Luther's prayers so much that I often write them in my prayer journal before adding mine. Does God listen more to Luther's prayers? Of course not, but I consider them a vehicle, an arrow toward a closer, more loving yet respectful, relationship to my Father in heaven. It is worthy of note also that sometimes when you don't know how to pray in a particular situation, what to say, where to start, these prayers help you to focus, to meditate, to come up with words of your own. The small catechism, which I have separately, is woven throughout the book, which is helpful and timely. I am newly Lutheran of the Missouri Synod but think these prayers, this book, would be good and meaningful for anyone who wants to develop a closer relationship to God.

This book is an excellent prayer resource. I'm a new Lutheran and these prayers are so wonderful each day. I even had a non-Lutheran friend purchase one for herself as she enjoyed them as much as I do.

Daily prayers written by Martin Luther.

Danke

Beautifully bound, high quality book. Includes a wide variety of topics relevant to life's journey. Eloquently written prayers.

Chegou muito rápido, sem problemas na entrega. é uma grande adição à minha biblioteca pessoal.

Typical conservative rubbish from the Missouri synod.

If you bought this book, you likely knew what you were getting. That said, it is a treasure of prayers for your daily spiritual walk in a great little package.
