In the midst of personal revival and an age of revolution, Martin Luther, an Augustinian friar, posted his Ninety-Five Theses on the door of the Wittenburg church in protest against the decadent abuses of the Catholic church in 1517. This action set off a world-wide movement whos e effects we all are still feeling today.
Luther's actions were the result of the interaction of myriad forces, political, philosophical, spiritual, and technological. The world is no longer the same.
