First published in 1525, Martin Luther's Bondage of the Will is acknowledged by theologians as one of the great masterpieces of the Reformation. It is Luther response to Desiderius Erasmus' Diatribe on Free Will, written in his direct and unique style, combining deep spirituality with humor. Luther writes powerfully about man's depravity and God's sovereignty. The crucial issue for Luther concerned what ability free will has, and to what degree it is subject to God's sovereignty. For Luther, this key issue of free will is directly connected to God's plan of salvation. Is man able to save himself, or is his salvation entirely a work of divine grace? This work is vital to understanding the primary doctrines of the Reformation and will long remain among the great theological classics of Christian history.Public Domain (P)2009 christianaudio.com Biographies Christianity Historical History Ministry & Evangelism Salvation Theory Theology

I have read Luther’s Bondage of the Will many times, and have been moved and informed every time. But this recording, by Nadia May, is so well read, so persuasive, so beautifully phrased, so clear and cogent, that I celebrated Luther’s brilliant thinking in a new way! Thank you Ms May! Well done.

This is an excellent piece, and it is a powerful read.

Wonderful and powerful book. Bizarre that a female is reading a book written by Martin Luther. Hard to get past that, however she is a good narrator... just not a good selection for this book.

Female Voice?

This book was very good. It articulates the reformed view in the simplest terms as possible. I hope many modern evangelicals take the time to read this. It is worth it.

Wow. Thank you

Just finished this one. Wow! A chest full of innumerable treasures. I'll definitely need to revisit this one, and next time with much bigger pockets!

A window into Luther's heart and incredible mind.

In regards to Luther, it is well spoken and hilarious. He holds back nothing in the way of sarcasm and verbal assault toward “friend” Erasmus. Yet Luther allows every consideration possible to him. Luther weighs every point against scripture and does the word justice in an impeccable manner. In regards to the narrator, she reads well and speaks clearly.
