Can't upgrade. It hangs when I try to.

It's the liberal ELCA version, complete with notes that subvert the authority of scripture.

May GOD richly reward those who generously share HIS WORD with a view to helping others grow in the knowledge of our MIGHTY GOD, and in understanding what HE is communicating to humanity! As a christian, I can't thank you enough for this wondrous job!

The small catechism is the basis of Lutheran life and is taught to new conformance. This online reference changes contains the entire English translation.

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.

Well done, Augsburg Fortress. The modern translation, coupled with uncommon additions in the Study Edition makes this quite useful.

Let us use these teachings to discipline and disciple our children at home and God's children in his church.

Tho. R. Jul 14, 2016     

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.

And. F. Jul 14, 2016     

It is a good idea that all things are in one place.
