Persecuted by princes, popes and plagues, Martin Luther’s radical stand for the gospel is brought vividly to life. This perspective-shaping story of the Reformation will enlighten and captivate readers of all ages. Carr’s noteworthy attention to detail and historical context is brilliantly paired with the striking illustrations of Troy Howell, acclaimed illustrator of the Redwall series.

 

Five hundred years ago, a monk named Martin Luther wrote ninety-five questions, hoping to start a discussion about sin and repentance at the University of Wittenberg in Germany. In a few months those questions had stirred the nation; a few years later, the continent. Today we know that those questions changed the course of both the Western church and world history. In this volume for children, Simonetta Carr tells the compelling story of this father of the Protestant Reformation, tracing his quest for peace with God, his lifelong heroic stand for God’s truth, and his family life and numerous accomplishments. The Reformer’s greatest accomplishment, she writes, “has been his uncompromising emphasis on the free promise of the gospel.”
