“Aside from the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ and the birth of the Church at Pentecost, The Reformation is the single most important event in the last 2000 Years.”
On October 31, 1517, Martin Luther nailed his Ninety-five Theses on the door of the All Saints’ Church in Wittenberg and sparked The Reformation. This year marks the 500th year anniversary of The Reformation and in order commemorate that day we are airing 6 1-hour episodes talking about the History of the Reformation and the theology that was rediscovered through the Reformation.
Each program is hosted by Josh Bales from The Well Church and features Jonathan Van Hoogen from Dayspring United Reformed Church, Russell Herman from Cloverdale United Reformed Church, and Phil Moran from Christ Presbyterian Church.
Each program will air on Saturday at 1pm and Sunday at 5pm through November 18th.
