'We are in on this conversation about trust together. I make hold to represent you. Then I bid you to pass on its words of grace and trust to others, since they join us in being in this together.' With these words, Marty E. Marty invites the reader into a conversation with Martin Luther and with that part of Matthew's Gospel known as the sermon on the Mount. As Luther comments on the 'Sermon,' so Marty comments on Luther. We overhear, but more than that, we are drawn into the conversation about the place of trust in the life of faith, about prayer, and about what Marty calls the 'overturning' nature of the Beatitudes. With clear insight, a pastoral heart, and a personal touch, Marty provides a glimpse of Luther the man while engaging the reader in exploring the meaning both of Luther's commentary and Matthew's text. Hear Dr. Marty's hope for the reader in his own words.
