About this title

Synopsis

Does the Reformation Still Matter?

In 1517, a German monk nailed a poster to the door of a church, disputing key doctrines taught by the Roman Catholic Church in that day. This moment set in motion a movement that changed the entire trajectory of church history. But do the Reformers still have something to teach us?

In this accessible primer, Michael Reeves and Tim Chester answer eleven key questions raised by the Reformers―questions that remain critically important for the church today.

• Explains key doctrines of the Reformation at a popular level
• Answers questions such as  “How can we get God’s approval?” “How can we overcome sin in our lives?” and “Why do we take bread and wine at the Lord’s Table?”
• Includes chapter summaries and tables to help clarify key information
• Authors are popular theologians and historians
