Saints Gone Before

A new series begins today! We're pleased to bring you Martin Luther's "On the Babylonian Captivity of the Church" to coincide with volume 3 of our other podcast, "An Oral History of the Church," in which we discuss the Lutheran Wing of the Reformation (episode 1 of volume 3 is available now!). Today's reading covers the introduction to the Luther text, with sarcasm, insults, and insightful commentary all rolled into one. Next week, Luther digs into the subject of the Lord's Supper in earnest. The text comes from Henry Wace and C. A. Buchheim, First Principles of the Reformation, London: John Murray, 1883. Would you like to request a specific book, sermon, or other Christian text? Please e-mail us at churchhistorypodcast@gmail.com or tweet us @OralHistoryPod. Let us know how we’re doing, or what you’d like to hear more of! Reader: Adam Christman Created by: Jonathan McCormick and Adam Christman Produced and edited by: Adam Christman
