That’s the story we think we know of Martin Luther, his 95 Theses, and the beginning of the Reformation. But is it the whole story? What cries for reform preceded Luther? Who helped him and who opposed him? And what were the things he changed and the things he didn't? Find out in this issue of Christian History magazine.
