Book — the Reformation and Confessions
While most Lutherans are familiar with the events of the Reformation, a deeper understanding is provided into the theological substance of the Reformation, and how political, economic, and social factors played a role in its defense. The material addresses the person of Martin Luther and how his personal struggle emerged as a public matter and became a powerful historic event. The Lutheran legacy contained in its Confessions is summarized and presented in a style directed to the laity.
