This makes me happy!
On April 18, 1521, in the city of Worms, Germany, Martin Luther, an Augustinian monk was called to defend himself before Charles the Fifth, the Holy Roman Emperor. The speech he delivered that day, “Here I Stand”, marked the beginning of the Protestant Reformation, a critical turning point in both church and world history.
Listen as Max McLean narrates the events leading up to the “Diet of Worms”: Martin Luther’s prayer the night before; his stirring defense; the church’s rebuttal; and finally, Luther’s most passionate response.
This is excellent! What a blessing and encouragement today. I have heard Max McLean at Ligonier before and he really touched me with his portrayal of Paul. You find such wonderful treats Christina. May the Lord bless you my friend!
What a blessing it was to listen to this, Christina. I have read Here I Stand before, but hearing it read by such a gifted voice of McLean was a delight. What conviction Luther had. We are so thankful that his conscience was captive to the Word of God and that he did not compromise. Many blessings to you.
Superb in every way! Thanks for making me aware of this production.
