The Dawn of the Reformation: 2016 Regional Conference
Most people remember October 31, 1517 as the day Martin Luther nailed the ninety-five theses. But what drove him to list a series of theological statements for public dispute? Why did he focus on the importance of repentance for the Christian life? What did he want to achieve? In this session, Dr. Nichols considers what lessons can be learned from the life of Martin Luther on the eve of the Reformation.
