Dr. Howell will discuss Martin Luther at 7:00 p.m. on Monday, October 30 in Francis Chapel. He will repeat the talk on Tuesday, October 31 at 11:00 am, also in Francis Chapel

October 31 marks the 500^th anniversary of the day this Catholic monk sparked the Protestant Reformation by nailing his 95 theses to the Wittenberg door.  Dr. Howell, who has spent time in the places where Luther was born, lived, and worked, and who has published on Luther, will share with us what unfolded in this significant theologian’s life, how much of what we take for granted about church life commenced with his reforms, how Luther can help us understand the life of faith – and also some of his foibles.
