Martin Luther: The Man Who Rediscovered God and Changed the World

Overview

In this New York Times bestseller, author and biographer Eric Metaxas delves into the life of Martin Luther—a young monk who ignited a religious revolution. Well-researched and engagingly written, this biography tells the true story of the man whose actions, 500 years later, are still ringing true today.

Much of what we know about or associate with Luther is either a myth or an exaggeration of the truth. Martin Luther: The Man Who Rediscovered God and Changed the World seeks to dispel the exaggerations and reveal the still very extradordinary truths about the life of this humble monk from Germany.
