This trip of a life-time and ministry for me starts this Wednesday, April 11 and runs through April 17th. I will be visiting some of the major cities of Martin Luther's life: Eisenach, Erfurt, Wittenberg, Coberg, and the Wartburg Castle. If possible I will post some reflections along the way of this trip.
Martin Luther was the 16th century German pastor and biblical scholar whose work initiated the Reformation. Luther discovered that the central teaching of scripture is that we are saved by our faith in Christ. This teaching challenged the Roman Catholic Church of his day and unleashed a wide-spread reform movement that resulted in the founding of the Lutheran Church in Germany and other Scandinavian countries and eventually become a world-wide movement.
More later.....
