REFORMATION DAY 2019
Chris discusses the annual remembrance of the beginning of the Great Reformation, which is traditionally traced to October 31, 1517 when Dr. Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the church door in Wittenberg, Germany.  The Reformation is an important event to understand American freedom, when one considers that the concept of rights that come from God is based on the teachings of the Reformers.  When Samuel Adams spoke before signing the Declaration of Independence, he declared that the “reign of political Protestantism” would commence in America.  This year, we also consider lessons from Ulrich Zwingli the influential Swiss reformer who laid down his life in defense of the Gospel and for the freedom of his country.
