Download Rescuing the Gospel: The Story and Significance of the Reformation AudioBook Free
The Reformation unfolded in the cathedrals and town squares of Europe - in Wittenberg, Worms, Rome, Geneva, and Zurich - which is a stirring account of courage and cowardice, of betrayal and faith. The story begins with the Catholic Church and its desperate need for reform. The remarkable occurrences that followed are traced from John Wycliffe in Great britain, to the using up of John Hus at the stake in Prague, to the rampant deal of indulgences in the places and towns of Germany, to Martin Luther nailing the 95 Theses to the door of the Castle Church in 1517, to John Calvin's reform of Geneva. Erwin W. Lutzer captures the individuals, places, and big ideas that fueled the Reformation and clarifies its lasting affect on the chapel and Western civilization.
