Christoph Christian Sturm (1740?1786) Was A German Preacher And Author, Best Known For His Reflections On The Works Of God In Nature. He Left Halle In 1769, To Become Second Pastor Of The Church Of The Holy Spirit At Magdeburg, Where He Passed The Happiest Part Of His Professional Life, And Where He Wrote Most Of His Devotional Works. Finally, In 1778, He Was Appointed Chief Pastor Of St. Peter's Church At Hamburg. Here He At First Lived Happily, Beloved And Respected As A Preacher And Author, Until, In 1782, His Views On The Salvation Of The Heathen Led J. M. Goetze, Chief Pastor Of St. Katherine's Church In Hamburg, To Accuse Him Of Nationalism. The Resulting Controversy Embittered And Shortened Sturm's Life. Sturm's Works Have Been Translated Into Numerous Different Languages And Are Still In Use Today, His Works On The Reflections On The Works Of God In Nature Even Highly Influenced Beethoven, Amongst Whose Possessions Was Found A Highly Annotated Copy Of Sturm's Work.
