Was Luther "Living His Truth"? Responding to The Rest is History…

If you’re a regular podcast listener, chances are you’ve come across the hugely successful ‘The Rest is History Podcast’ hosted by Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook. You may have seen/heard that they recently did a series on Martin Luther, which was thought provoking (and potentially exciting that they were exposing a huge number of people to the life and ministry of Luther!)

There was plenty of helpful content in the episodes, but I was not along in being left thinking, they’d misrepresented Luther in some important ways - and not really got into the objective realities of justification by faith that were so important and defining for him.

Speak Life did an episode specifically responding to the series where Glen Scrivener, Amy Mantravadi and Mike Reeves discussed it all at length very helpfully - you’ll find the link below. Highly recommended, and helpful if you have friends who are fans of the Rest Is History podcast and wanted to talk to them about the Luther episodes.
