Why the Reformation Still Matters: A Journey into the Heart of Christianity
In this groundbreaking work, historian and theologian Diarmaid MacCulloch takes readers on a journey into the heart of Christianity, exploring the profound impact of the Reformation on Western civilization. MacCulloch argues that the Reformation was not simply a religious schism, but a transformative event that shaped the course of history. He traces the origins of the Reformation in the late Middle Ages, when Europe was in the midst of a profound spiritual and intellectual crisis. He then follows the story of the Reformation as it spread across Europe, leading to wars, persecutions, and ultimately, the birth of Protestantism.
