Beginning in a Europe haunted by the Turk, witches and a wrathful God, this brief life follows Luther from his birth at Eisleben in 1483 through Erfurt, the monastery and his professorship at Wittenberg, to the indulgence controversy, the break with Rome, his stand before the Emperor, and the reshaping of worship that followed, with a chronology.
A quick, readable introduction to Luther for students and church groups, written from a sympathetic Protestant view. Download the free EPUB.
