Reformation Day and diversity

Despite the Reformation’s birth in Europe, we should celebrate Reformation Day by welcoming all people fully into the Body of Christ.

Celebrating the Reformation

In late October 1517, an obscure Augustinian monk teaching in a minor German university offered a set of propositions, inviting an academic debate. Many Presbyterians can picture Martin Luther nailing his 95 Theses on the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, but we are hard-pressed to say what the theses were about, and why they sparked a movement that both reformed and divided the church.

Dr. Jerry Andrews.
