Initial Release
ichGlaub is a collection of historical and theological Christian books used by Christians throughout USA and Canada. Most of the books were originally written in German and later translated into English.
One example is Riedemann's Confession of faith which gives theological grounding for the Hutterite understanding of economic communalism and offers practical examples of it. His Confession of Faith was written in prison during 1540-42 for the Lutheran ruler, Philip of Hesse. He explains his goal of a renewed community and dispels popular misconceptions.
Riedemann creatively weaves together a fresh reading of the Bible with the classical creeds. He produces a powerful synthesis of Scripture and tradition on which to base Christian community. His dynamic vision of radical and communal discipleship still challenges believers toward greater faithfulness to the Lord and to each other.
Also included in german and english are both of the Hutterian Chronicles which provide background information and examples of what the early Hutterites had to endure to remain true to their faith and believes.
