Around this time of the year I enjoy remembering the Reformation and how God’s sovereign hand worked in the lives of the individual reformers. Of course, it is at this time of the year because October 31 is the anniversary date of Luther’s posting of his 95 theses on the castle door in Wittenburg, Germany.

This year I have been fascinated with William Tyndale. For those who are a bit unfamiliar, Tyndale was the first to translate the NT into English from the Greek. He, too, was the first to print his Testament on a printing press. When Tyndale’s Bible hit the streets it turned England upside down. The light of the Word of God pierced through the darkness of even the most blinded hearts.

I may write more later, but for now I will create some links to other resources for anyone who would wish to learn more about Tyndale and the way that God worked in and through his life.
