During the first part of the program today, we will discuss the book, "The Life of Luther". This book, originally published in 1850, is now available from New Leaf Publishing. My guest during this portion of the program will be Craig Froman - curriculum writer and an editor at New Leaf Publishing Group.
About the The Life of Luther: An historic and comprehensive biography of early Christianity's most influential leader of the Protestant Reformation, Martin Luther.
Controversial and visionary, Luther's life is revealed in this rare presentation of his work as an educator and church leader. From his birth and childhood, to his religious education, and the events leading up to the Protestant Reformation, you will discover the views and experiences that led to his excommunication by the Pope in 1520. Correspondence and accounts shed further light on Luther's defiant translation of the Bible from Latin to the language of the common man.
This unique biography is reproduced from an 1850 American Sunday School Union original, and in it you will be introduced to the pivotal life of this enigmatic man before, during, and after one of Christianity's defining events.
During the second half of the program, I will air "Here I Stand: The Speech That Launched The Protestant Reformation" narrated by Max McLean.
Recovering the treasures of the past is a marvelous gift to the church. I love these presentations of the classics given by Max McLean. However, Martin Luther's “Here I Stand” is my favorite. — R.C. Sproul
