The Reformation

Join Dr. Grant Horner as he offers a profound and insightful journey into the Protestant Reformation, a monumental period in church history where God’s truth was rediscovered and boldly proclaimed. This engaging and comprehensive lecture delves into the lives and legacies of key figures like Martin Luther and John Calvin, whose unwavering commitment to sola scriptura and the authority of God’s Word forever reshaped Christianity. Dr. Horner unpacks the critical theological disputes of the time, including challenges to indulgences, papal authority, and other errors that obscured the gospel of grace.

Beyond theology, Dr. Horner examines the broader cultural, political, and technological factors—such as the invention of the printing press—that God sovereignly used to spread Reformation truth across Europe. You’ll also explore the groundwork laid by precursors like John Wycliffe and Jan Hus, as well as the Catholic Church's Counter-Reformation efforts to stifle these sweeping changes. This lecture provides a compelling blend of historical insight and biblical analysis, making it essential for anyone passionate about understanding the roots of the gospel and the enduring power of God’s Word.
