Publisher's Description

The Reformer at war In Zwingli the Pastor, Stephen Brett Eccher tells the story of Huldrych Zwingli (1484-1531), embattled pastor and reformer. Zwingli's ministry in Zurich was characterized by conflict--conflict that fueled him. It influenced his theological development, inspired his commitment to bring reform, and compelled his devotion to the congregation he led through the tumult of the Reformation. Eccher reveals a complex Zwingli, whose life and legacy continue to influence Protestantism today.

“Moving easily between the sixteenth century and our time, this is the ideal book for those who think the Reformation is a distant, forgotten time as well as for those who know it is not. A compelling read.”

F. Bruce Gordon

“The recent revival of interest in Huldrych Zwingli is long overdue. This is a much-needed guide to a complex man, whose influence on the Reformation has yet to be fully appreciated.”

Gerald Bray
