Christians today will find new cause to rejoice in what God did in the sixteenth century through weak and fallible men and women. His people sought to submit themselves to the Word of God and lead his followers in a godly and faithful response to the gospel of grace. The Reformation is not a dead movement but a living legacy that can still capture the imagination and encourage men and women in their own Christian discipleship.
