In this Lutheran Quarterly Book Talk, Paul Rorem (Lutheran Quarterly Editor) interviews Anna Marie Johnson (Professor at Garrett Evangelical Theological Seminary) about her new book, “Reforming Faith: The Wittenberg Circle and the Reformation of Christian Life “, which covers the events in the early years of the Reformation and the group of men that made it a success.
The Reformation was, at its heart, a movement to change the way Christians worshipped, lived, and understood their faith. Wittenberg reformers were deeply involved in efforts to implement these changes. Johnson recasts the story of the early Reformation, highlighting practical efforts to reform practices, institutions, and understandings.
