No secret about it. I love to read and study Christian (i.e., Church) History. Numerous articles on this website are evidence of that. The stacks of books in my library and numerous titles in my Kindle digital book account confirm it.

Recently I wrote several articles on some little-known aspects of Martin Luther’s life and work, including two on this translation of the Bible into the common German language. So I was thrilled to discover this article in the Christianity Today Magazine archives written in 2017 by Ben Witherington, entitled, “The Most Dangerous Thing Luther Did.”I highly recommend it.
