Emphasizing the impact of Martin Luther's teachings and sweeping reform, this book looks at the direct impact of the famous Protesant reformer in today's Lutheran church. One of his impacts was to give the Lutheran church an identity by transforming it into a confessional church, though this has come under fire in recent decades. While not wholly chronological, biographical information and quotes of Luther are woven throughout to show who Luther was and what he represented. Through this captivating commentary, readers can share in the up-and-down battles of a difficult reform, reaffirm their Lutheran beliefs, and appreciate just what Luther did for the church, both past and present.
