Get your Luther now—lots of him

Now's a great time to pre-order issue 115 in quantity!

Pre-print order window is now open for Christian History magazine #115, "Luther Leads the Way," inaugurating a four-issue series on the history of the Reformation.

This issue, filled with intriguing images and entertaining stories, begins in the late Middle Ages with many people who began to feel that the church had somehow gotten off course and needed reform. Then we’ll explore how Luther’s movement, originally meant as no more than a suggestion of some issues for debate, caught fire and quickly resulted in something no previous reform effort had—large-scale division of the Western church.

You'll meet Luther himself, who loved music, food and drink, insulting his enemies, and preaching the Gospel; his wife, Katherine von Bora, an escaped nun who became mother of six, hostess to many, and manager of everything from farms to stables to a brewery; his friend Philip Melancthon; his confessor Johann Staupitz; his pastor Johannes Bugenhagen; Frederick the Wise, the ruler who protected Luther even while not fully understanding him; popes and debaters who opposed him; and many more colorful characters from both church and state who wrestled with what Luther's ideas meant for the future of Christianity.

If you will need a large quantity of this issue, contact us today to take advantage of our lowest pricing. We can't wait to share it with you!
