Cover... Related Items Fiction Anabaptist | The 1500's were stirring times in Europe. Luther nailed his
ninety-five theses to a church door in Germany and exploded the powder
keg of unrest that seethed for decades. Against this background, Regina Strahm finds herself caught between two religious factions in Switzerland. Her parents repeatedly warn her against the Anabaptist heresy, and the young man she loves has no doubts about the state church's claims. But why then does Zwingli's official religion fail to satisfy her spiritual emptiness? Have the heretics found a quality of life worth dying for? Reprint 2006 | |

Cover... Related Items Children | "Erasmus laid the egg that Luther hatched" is what the people said.
And that made young Gerard Koestler smile. He knew that Erasmus had
influenced Luther's thinking. He also believed both men were trying to
serve God according to the Scriptures. Young Gerhard Koestler lived in Germany in the 1500s. He inherited money and a castle when his rich parents died. His Uncle Frederic tried to talk Gerhard into becoming a monk so Frederic could claim the inheritance for his own. But Gerhard had other ideas. After a series of adventures and narrow escapes, Gerhard arrived in Basel, Switzerland. To his delight he was able to live in the same house as Erasmus. Although Erasmus' enemies accused him of agreeing with Martin Luther, Erasmus said that the Bible was his guide. In the end, Gerhard returned to his castle. Not sure whether he wanted to be known as a Catholic or a Lutheran, Gerhard said, "Call me a Christian." No other name was necessary. Reprinted 2002. | |
