Trailblazers: Martin Luther - Reformation Fire
Publisher's note:
How did an ordinary monk become a key figure in the Reformation that swept across Europe in the 1500s?
What were the reasons lying behind his nailing of 95 theses against the practice of indulgences to the door of the Schlosskirche in Wittenberg in 1517? Why was Martin Luther’s life in danger? How did his apparent kidnapping result in the first ever New Testament translated into the German language? Discover how a fresh understanding of the Scriptures not only transformed his own life but had a huge impact upon Europe.
The Trailblazer series collects great stories from Christians of the past and delivers them to the young people of today. This gripping and astonishing story from Catherine MacKenzie will challenge young readers to stand up for truth as Martin Luther did.
(Publisher's suggestion: read to ages 7-9; read myself: ages 9-14+)
