Ecclesia was born on Pentecost 1:30, almost 2000 years ago. In all its generations it has known countless heroes. Some anonymous, others extremely famous. They lived at very different times, in varied social and economic contexts. Each of them sought, as best they could, to hold high the standard of faith and to share their convictions with their contemporaries.
The stories in this third volume take place in the times of the Reformation (1400 – 1700). They tell us of a Church which rediscovers the Bible and aspires to profound renewal. This difficult path will lead to its fragmentation.
Discover, through the 12 characters presented in this work, the birth and flourishing of Protestantism. Convinced and courageous Christians who marked their era and brought new vitality to the Church.
The historical accounts in this book are supplemented by short thematic explanations, to allow readers of all ages to better understand this period of renewal in the history of Ecclesia.
