In \u003ci\u003eLittle Prayer Book (1522)\u003c\/i\u003e, Luther seeks to reform the theology and practice of prayer in clear and understandable language for all people by encouraging simple, direct prayer to God, who promises to hear the one who prays. Luther focuses on the Ten Commandments, Apostles' Creed, and Lord's Prayer, giving his treatment of prayer a catechetical feel that would later provide the structure of his catechisms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eA Simple Way to Pray (1535)\u003c\/i\u003e, Luther offers his barber and all other readers insights into his own prayer life.
