This is the second volume in The Living Theological Heritage of the United Church of Christ, a 7-volume series of foundational documents, treatises, and statements celebrating the history, faith, and practice of one of Protestantism's most significant denominations.
Volume 2, Reformation Roots, is a fresh and highly accessible collection of the most significant writings of this critical time in the life of the church. Edited by John B. Payne, who provides a general introduction as well as prefatory remarks for each work, this volume begins with the influence of medieval thought and proceeds to all the major movements and thinkers of the period. This is a major new study of the Reformation for scholars, pastors, and laypersons alike.
