Description
Book SynopsisEverything you need to know about the reformation and why you need to know it.
Trade Review“I don’t know of a better brief introduction to the Reformation and its continuing importance today. It provides an ideal opportunity in this anniversary year for Christians both to remember the past and to reflect on how we can build on it into the future.” -- Vaughan Roberts, Rector, * St Ebbe’s Church, Oxford and Lausanne plenary speaker *
"This packs a punch way beyond its size, and is far more than just an appetizer. Alan Purser’s Appendix on one of the most misused passages of Scripture, John 17, is worth the price alone! " -- David Robertson * Minister at St Peter’s Church, Dundee and blogger at the weeflea *
"This book is guaranteed to put a new spring in the step of every evangelical. It takes us back to our roots, and shows us how the apostolic gospel of Jesus Christ can change the world." -- John Benton * Editor of Evangelicals Now *
