Martin Luther is one of early Christianity's most
important and pivotal leaders. From his early
years to the Protestant Reformation, you will
discover the views and experiences which led to
his excommunication by the Pope in 1520.
This
book recounts detailed correspondence and the
accounts that shed further light on Luther's
dispute with the Catholic Church, primarily over
the sale of Indulgences supposedly able to avoid
punishment of sin.
You will also learn why
Luther defiantly chose to translate the Bible from
Latin to the language of the common man so they
would read Biblical truth for themselves.
Luther was often visionary and defiantly confident
that his actions were correct, the 'Life of
Luther' is a fascinating and important historical
account you won't want to miss!

The life of Peter comes closer to us than any of his fellow apostles. Drawn from the ranks of ordinary fishermen in an obscure village on the Lake of Galilee, Peter is so human, so much like one of us in his weaknesses. Strong, fiery, impulsive and self-assertive, Peter could be consumed with passion one moment, then cold as the snows of Lebanon the next.
Only the Savior could discover the apostle in Simon Peter, and His patience drew out the latent qualities of Peter's character. If the Master could do so much for the flawed Peter, what might He do in our lives?
