This is a very important issue. For reasons I don't fully understand Presbyterians have a weird aversion to Luther. They tend not to read him.
This is bizarre. If no Luther, no Calvin, no Bucer, No Zwingli, no Reformed Church. Luther is foundational to our theology and piety. Do we agree with everything Luther said? No, but we don't agree with everything Calvin said!
I urge everyone to read Bondage of the Will, his lectures on Galatians, and his lectures on Romans among other things. Folks tend to read the Three Treatises from Aug-Fall 1520, and they are worth reading, but we need to read the Large Catechism and other texts in Luther. One of the great needs of Reformed churches/Christians today is to get to know the fount of the Reformation.
