The Reformation in Europe
By 1500, there is already growing unrest within European Christendom. Many of the faithful are longing for change, for the “Reformation” of their Church - the Catholic Church. Far too great is the contrast between that which the pastorate preaches and the actual life of the popes, bishops, priests, monks and nuns - all too often characterised by extravagance and a lust for power. One man complains about these grievances louder than the rest: Martin Luther. His wake-up call will change Europe. With him begins the long-desired Reformation - and the schism in the Church.
