Here He Stood: Martin Luther (1483–1546)
Luther stood not on the pronouncements of popes, or the decisions of councils, or the winds of popular opinion, but on “that word above all earthly powers.”
-
The Runaway Nun: Katharina von Bora (1499–1552)
Katharina married Martin Luther to survive as a runaway nun, but their marriage proved to be a model in a time when “pastor’s wife” was a new role.
-
The Administrative Pastor: Johannes Bugenhagen (1485–1558)
The Reformation required more than theological giants. It also demanded organizational geniuses.
-
The Happy Professor: Zacharius Ursinus (1534–1583)
He took the lead role in writing the Heidelberg Catechism, one of the most ringing affirmations of faith in all of Christian history.
-
The First Calvinist: Theodore Beza (1519–1605)
Theodore Beza gave form to what we now call Calvinism by explaining and defending the biblical doctrines Calvin had rediscovered.
-
The Teenage Martyr: Lady Jane Grey (c. 1537–1554)
Lady Jane Grey was a teenage victim of social and political conspiracy, beheaded at seventeen for her faith. But her life is far from a tragedy.
