About the Book

Historian and teacher Andrew J. Lindsey introduces students to the life of Martin Luther through this brief, accurate biography, which focuses on the key biblical texts that shaped the reformer's teaching concerning the good news of Jesus Christ. During a time when Europe was in political and religious turmoil from within and without, one man's struggle over the question of how sinners may be accepted in the sight of God would lead to a new source of conflict, but his answers from the Bible would bring great hope to many.
