On that date [October 31, 1517], Martin Luther, angry and disappointed with the Roman Catholic Church, nailed on the door of Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany, 95 theses calling for a Reformation. This momentous moment in Christian history is captured and assessed by Martin E. Marty, the Fairfax M. Cone Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus at the University of Chicago, where he taught for 35 years. His central point is that Luther's bold act of protest was a call for repentance or a change of heart within the Catholic Church, which at the time was overrun with corruption due to the selling of indulgences. Instead, Luther emphasized justification by faith and an acceptance of the grace of God. Other interesting topics covered in the book are the present day existence of some 40,000 Christian denominations (part of Luther's legacy), the continuing dialogue between Lutherans and Roman Catholics, and their sincere efforts to come together in common prayer and joint action. --Living Lutheran, June 2016, Marty begins by observing that some of the best books, some of the classic smaller books are about "one thing." Examples are  Pilgrim's Progress, Paradise Lost, Uncle Tom's Cabin, Little Women,  and even possibly Dr. Seuss's  The Cat in the Hat ! No matter the number of various themes woven into the narrative, there is in these "good ones" one integrating theme. And that precisely, Marty informs us, is the design of this little book: it is about one thing. That one thing he announces at the outset is "repentance." At this point, before reading further, veteran Lutherans might cock their heads and wonder why this entry into the observance of the coming 500th anniversary of the Reformation would choose repentance instead of "grace" or "faith," not to mention "justification." Well, of course, things do get around to justification by grace through faith without much delay. Nonetheless, the integrating focus remains repentance. Marty takes his clue from the first of Luther's Ninety-Five Theses: "When our Lord and Master Jesus Christ said 'Repent,' he intended the entire life of believers to be repentance."  Marty and I talked about his view of the significance and paramount importance of this first thesis. He related that he has always been almost obsessed with the first thesis. In his judgement, if we understand it correctly, "it says it all."  To appreciate the force of this thesis, he says we need to get away from the common images of repentance as merely gloomy and penitential. This book is a little book with a big message: a message of repentance as change of heart, the message of 1517 that Marty is able to show has manifold implications for church and world. It is worthy of careful attention in the commemorations to come. Because of its size and accessibility to a broad readership, this book is an excellent resource for use in congregations as well as classrooms. It can introduce readers to the heartbeat of the Reformation. An extra benefit is the inclusion of the full text of the Ninety-Five Theses. Readers who may never have had an occasion to read them will now have them ready at hand as they read about their world-changing significance. -- James M. Childs, Jr. is Joseph A, Sittler Professor Emeritus of Theology and Ethics at Trinity Lutheran Seminary and Book Review Editor of the Journal of Lutheran Ethics ., This book has a lot packed in it for such a short volume (90 pages and then an appendix of Luther's 95 Thesis), and I found it very informative and thought provoking, especially Marty's beautiful examination of what repentance really means. Rather than being for or against Luther, as the Reformation debate often dwells upon, Martin Marty traces Luther's influence on the church, as well as history at large, and shows where Catholics and Lutherans have sought unity in more recent times. He closes with thoughts on how this unity can be developed further. Both Catholics, Lutherans, and all the denominations in between will learn something from this little book and be convicted towards the kind of whole-life-encompassing, inside-out repentance that Luther advocated as it relates to being one bride of Christ. Well-researched and graceful, Marty has a great perspective on a potentially explosive topic. --Amanda Rogozinski, Ordained Lutheran minister and historian Martin E. Marty presents October 31, 1517: Martin Luther and the Day that Changed the World , a book released especially to commemorate the fateful day when Martin Luther rebelled against the excesses of the Catholic church, proposed ninety-five theses to bring humans closer to God, and initiated the Protestant Reformation, which would create a new branch of Christianity. Martin Luther's 95 Theses are included in this erudite and thoughtful look back at a turbulent time, when Marin Luther's words about the need for "repentance" were a clarion call. Thoroughly accessible to readers of all backgrounds, October 31, 1517 is a welcome addition to church library collections. --Andrea Kay, Midwest Book Review, This book is a little book with a big message: a message of repentance as change of heart, the message of 1517 that Marty is able to show has manifold implications for church and world.

Synopsis
"This volume is small but weighty and a solid addition for all modern Christianity collections." --Ray Olson, Booklist With a foreword by James Martin, this classic reader on the Reformation by Martin Marty answers the question: Why is the Reformation relevant today? Most importantly, this book is about how the Reformation impacts us devotionally as Christians of any denomination. Accessible for church groups or personal reading, this is not a historical narrative of Reformation events, but an explanation of the issues that led to Luther's posting of the 95 Theses and their implications for the Church and the world. As one of the world's preeminent Luther scholars, Martin Marty also explores the concept of repentance as a central theme of the Theses. In a foreword, James Martin, SJ, offers context and a shared vision. This year began with the joint ecumenical commemoration in Lund, Sweden, on October 31, 2016, attended by Pope Francis and members of the Lutheran World Federation and other Christian churches. Martin Marty explains how this event, and indeed all ecumenical dialogue that has happened over the past few hundred years and will happen in this coming year, represents a change of heart. "Valuable insight." - Kathleen Norris

  • Martin Luther Explained Well

    I have searched for quite awhile to understand the proclamations of Luther. This book explains not only that subject but the difficulties with the Catholic Church. Then explains how the Catholics and Lutherans are working together to become more amicable. Excellent book.
