Reviews

Michael Richard Laffin offers a persuasive friendly amendment to those who critique Martin Luther's theology...this work is a valuable contribution to the ongoing reassessment of Luther's soteriology and offers us a useful orchestration of the voices identifying relational ontology and faith-as-process in Luther's thought ...[this] book deserves a spot in advanced coursework and theological libraries. * Horizons *
