Get Reformation Ready
October 31 is Reformation Day, commemorating the day Martin Luther posted his 95 Theses (https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/article/luther-ninety-five-theses-what-you-may-not-know-why-they-matter-today/?amp=1) on the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg Germany. This sparked a ripple effect which caused the Protestant Reformation.
We owe our understanding of the Gospel, the grace of God, and the fact we can read the Bible in our own languages, and so much more to what was (re)discovered during this period. Many of these Reformers were beaten, imprisoned, and put to death for their actions of serving the Church.
For the next 30 days Desiring God Has a short (5-8 min) podcast or email that tells the story of the Reformation day by day. It’s called “Here We Stand”. I urge you to follow this so that you can know our history and appreciate all that God has done for us over the past 500 years. It is fascinating, inspiring, and faith building!
