Evan Gaertner and Mike Yagley discuss Dr. Martin Luther’s letters that he wrote to provide consolation to those bereft by grief.

Through these letters, we find how Luther applied the Law and the Gospel to the caretaking of souls when the grief of sadness had become overwhelming.

The letters referenced in this podcast will be found in Luther: Letters of Spiritual Counsel, edited and translated by Theodore G. Tappert, D.D., Litt.D. which can be found in the Library of Christian Classics Volume XVIII.
