The Reformation 500 Years Later

12 Things You Need to Know

De: Benjamin Wiker

Narrado por: Jim Denison

The year 2017 is the 500th-year anniversary of Martin Luther nailing his Ninety-Five Theses to the door of Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany - the event that marked the beginning of the Reformation and the end of unified Christianity. For Catholics, it was an unjustified rebellion by the heterodox; for Protestants, the release of true and purified Christianity from centuries-old enslavement to corruption, idolatry, and error.

So what is the truth about the Reformation? To mark the 500th anniversary, historian Benjamin Wiker gives us The Reformation 500 Years Later, a straightforward account that rejects the common distortions of Catholic, Protestant, Marxist, Freudian, or secularist retellings of this world-changing event.

Very lean and intriguing

This reading was over too soon. It was always full of interesting insights, and performed well.

I don’t consider it a criticism to say it was over too soon, but upon reflection I do wish there were more chapters, or another whole book, exploring more of the present conditions of the Reformation, and paths toward converting the Reformation into a Re-Formation.

This book is itself a good step, as it convincingly exposes many divisive, deeply ingrained assumptions.
