Most of us experience theology in a head-in-the-clouds kind of way. We see the great theologians’ words soaring far above us. Each word is powerful and yet untouchable. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

Good theology was never meant to be out of reach! Martin Luther’s work was revolutionary in part because of the invention of the printing press, giving his words more accessibility than ever before.

Reading Romans with Luther offers a shortened version of this monumental commentary, featuring an attractive devotional format and imagery highlighting key portions of the text.
