I can layer two documents in Indesign so I have only to make changes to one and it affects them both?

You can't superimpose two documents, but you can use the link and place feature in InDesign (Edit > place and link). This would allow you to have a single document which contained the main text, and then place this text in another document. When you change the text in the master file, any file that is using text related to this master file will indicate that it must be updated and it can bring in the modified text. Another option would be to export the text as a story in InCopy (.icml). Choose Edition > InCopy > export > selection, then the place that history in two InDesign documents. You can use the assignments Panel then check text for editing, but it would achieve a similar result. The first options would be the simpler of the two.
