The Unquenchable Flame: Discovering the Heart of the Reformation by Michael Reeves. B&H, 2010.
Burning pyres, nuns on the run, stirring
courage, and comic relief: the Protestant Reformation is a gripping
tale, packed with drama. But what motivated the Reformers? And what were
they really like?
The Unquenchable Flame, a lively,
accessible, and fully informative introduction to the Reformation by
Michael Reeves, brings to life the movement’s most colorful characters
(Martin Luther, Ulrich Zwingli, John Calvin, The Puritans, etc.),
examines their ideas, and shows the profound and personal relevance of
Reformation thinking for today.
Also included are a lengthy
Reformation timeline, a map of key places in the Reformation, further
reading suggestions, and, in this U.S. edition, a new foreword by 9
Marks Ministries president Mark Dever.
