Riassunto

Michael Reeves tells the story of the Reformation in a fast-paced style. John Stott (text updated with permission) takes the story forward, looking at the essence of the evangelical faith, and our responsibility now to hold it fast, and to pass it on. Carefully footnoted, the book includes a timeline, running from the earliest "heretik" martyr in Scotland in 1407 to the production of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer. This volume gives readers an easy grasp of the racy history of Reformation events in Europe. More than that, it shows why we need to know about the Reformation now.

Recensione:

"We have much to learn from church history, and here we see how the events of six centuries ago set the stage for the ministry of the great eighteenth- and nineteenth-century preachers and how they gave us the gospel now" Lindsay Brown -- Lindsay Brown Luther could never have predicted the consequences of his action, for, unintentionally, he had started a chain reaction that would turn Europe upside down... Mike Reeves -- Mike Reeves "May God give us wisdom and courage in these diverse ways to keep the faith in our own generation, preserved for us so wonderfully by the Reformers, and to pass it on." John Stott --John Stott
