For the next Church History session we will watch a video concerning Martin Luther’s Bondage of the Will.

Note: After introducing the Reformation by viewing the 1953 film Martin Luther in the previous session (“Martin Luther: Part One”), and prior to studying the Reformation in Germany in further detail, we need to take a step back for a look at the big picture of where we are headed in this study. The Continental Reformation and the English Reformation will be considered separately, but the period for both will be the bulk of the 16th and 17th centuries.

Note: In this session we will begin our study of the Protestant Reformation with a viewing of the 1953 film, Martin Luther, which was nominated for two Academy Awards. A remarkable aspect to the production of this film was the careful historical research involving the assistance of two respected scholars on the Reformation: Theodore G. Tappert (1904-1973), Schieren Professor of the History of Christianity at Lutheran Theological Seminary (Philadelphia, PA); and Jaroslav Pelikan (1923-2006). Pelikan, who was teaching at Valparaiso University and Confordia Theological Seminary at the time, went on to co-edit Luther's Works, 15 vols. (Philadelphia: Concordia, 1955-1960), and to receive Yale University's highest academic honor with his appointment as Sterling Professor of History in 1972.
