Publisher's Description
Martin Luther's nailing of the Ninety-Five Theses on the church door at Wittenberg was a pivotal moment in the birth of what would become known as the Reformation. More than five hundred years later, historians and theologians continue to discuss the impact of these events and their ongoing relevance for the church today. The collection of essays contained in this volume not only engages the history and theology of this sixteenth-century movement, but also focuses on how the message and praxis of the Protestant reformers can be translated into a post-Christendom West.

“A collection of weighty and readable essays on the enduring significance of the Protestant Reformation—solid scholarship in the service of the church. Highly recommended!”
“The Reformation was a watershed moment in history. As our sensitivity to historical traditions changes in the light of new questions and the awareness of global contexts, we find ourselves re-evaluating its impact and significance. It’s what the Reformers themselves would have expected. These authors point to new directions in Reformation research that help us find new meanings in its history and underscore its continuing relevance today.”
