Five Minutes Daily with Luther

In 1990, a delightful saint of the Lord, Mrs. Renee Hasskamp of Crosby, Minnesota, gave her pastor an old devotion book which she had cherished for decades. It proved to be a singular text of remarkable clarity and power and comfort in my daily devotions. Modern devotions tend to be antiseptic or weakly emotional, but the rugged words of Luther in this text were a daily surprise and treat. They applied so well to my life that I shared my enthusiasm for the book with many people. It was originally published in 1926, and the title was “Five Minutes Daily with Luther: Daily Lessons from the Writings of Martin Luther.” - Robin Fish
