Features: Who was Martin Luther? From the infallible truth teacher of 17th-century Lutheranism to the supreme model of rational individualism in the Enlightenment, and then to the man primarily responsible for the failure of the German church in its resistance to the Nazis in the 1930s, the religious Reformation movement triggered by Martin Luther had a profound impact not only in Europe but also in North America and Australia. This book presents Luther's life, ideas, and contemporary significance in an accessible and engaging way. Understanding Luther helps establish a spiritual world that calms inner fears and satisfies deep-seated longing.
