A presentation of some of Martin Luther’s most timeless and resonant sermons and lectures.
‘Can the bones of Luther’s sermons live again?’ In Luther’s Meditation on the Gospels, Roland H. Bainton presents some of Luther’s most timeless and resonant sermons and lectures, arranged in order of the gospel accounts of Jesus’ life. From the beginning of his ministry to the crucifixion and resurrection, Luther’s insight into a wide range of key passages is displayed. Bainton’s careful selections of excerpts ensures that Luther’s marvel at God’s love, his belief in salvation through divine grace and human faith, and more, remains effervescent.
Bainton provides an illuminating introduction, placing the texts in their historical context and explaining the technicalities of translation. Also included are numerous woodcuts from the 1562 edition of Luther’s Bible, further enriching our appreciation of the reformer’s thought. Sixty years on from its original publication, Luther’s Meditation on the Gospels remains a valuable contribution to Reformation studies.

Ward distils a sparkling metaphysical vision of the primacy of mind over matter that he has developed over decades of dialogue with secular philosophy and the great religious traditions. It is a vision that might have seemed outlandish at the outset of his philosophical career, but is now beginning to command respect throughout the philosophical guild. Crisply argued, elegantly structured, and effortlessly wide-ranging, The Priority of Mind is one of the most accessible and engaging presentations of the case for idealism that I have ever come across.
