Martin Luther's 95 Theses , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 70min
Luther’s 95 Theses, written in Latin, were famously posted by Martin Luther on the door of the Castle Church, Wittenberg, on October 31, 1517, an event that came to be considered as the beginning of the Protestant Reformation. The Theses focus on three main issues: selling forgiveness through indulgences, the pope’s claimed power of forgiveness, and the damage indulgences caused to sinners. The first thesis states, "When our Lord and Master Jesus Christ said, "Repent," he willed the entire life of believers to be one of repentance." The indulgence controversy set off by the Theses was the beginning of the Reformation, a schism in the Roman Catholic Church which initiated profound and lasting social and political change in Europe. Owing to the fact that printing had been invented, the Theses were translated into German and circulated widely, to became a manifesto with a lasting impact. ungekürzt. Language: English.

An Uncompromising Gospel: Lutheranism’s First Identity Crisis and Lessons for Today , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 222min
Martin Luther, preacher and writer, unleashed the unconditional and uncompromising gospel of God’s love for sinners in Jesus Christ who was crucified and rose from the dead. He exposed both man’s lost condition and Christ’s unfathomable love with unrelenting persistence and unmistakable clarity. Luther believed man was bound in sin, and only Christ could set the sinner free. He held Christ before his students, listeners, and readers. That message marked and formed his students and coworkers; yet, after his death, bitter disputes broke out about some of the most central aspects of his theology. Debates cut to the very heart of the Reformation, while its future hung precariously in the balance. An Uncompromising Gospel highlights Luther’s key theological teachings, details the controversies that broke out after his death, and provides important lessons for our own day, as Christians still struggle to grasp and hold the idea the love Christ had for sinners. As Lutheranism, in specific, and Christianity, as a whole, struggle to find and articulate their identity in challenging times once again, An Uncompromising Gospel provides helpful reminders about what the chief task and message of the church are, and should be, as it presses forward in God’s grace and with the good news of Christ Jesus. ungekürzt.

October 31, 1517: Martin Luther and the Day That Changed the World , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 103min
“This volume is small but weighty and a solid addition for all modern Christianity collections.” - Ray Olson, Booklist With a foreword by James Martin, this classic manual on the Reformation by Martin Marty answers the question: Why is the Reformation relevant today? Most importantly, this audiobook is about how the Reformation impacts us devotionally as Christians of any denomination. As we move toward the commemoration on October 31, 2017, this is the audiobook you need. Accessible for church groups or personal listening, this is not a historical narrative of Reformation events, but an explanation of the issues that led to Luther’s posting of the 95 Theses and their implications for the Church and the world. As one of the world’s preeminent Luther scholars, Martin Marty also explores the concept of repentance as a central theme of the Theses. In a foreword, James Martin, SJ, offers context and a shared vision. This year began with the joint ecumenical commemoration in Lund, Sweden, on October 31, 2016, attended by Pope Francis and members of the Lutheran World Federation and other Christian churches. Martin Marty explains how this event, and indeed all ecumenical dialogue that has happened over the past few hundred years and will happen in this coming year, represents a change of heart. “Valuable insight.” - Kathleen Norris ungekürzt.
