Eric Metaxas – Without Martin Luther, No U.S. Constitution As We Know It - a podcast by FOX News Radio

The 500th Anniversary of the Protestant Reformation probably went by for most people without notice last October 2017. Not too many breaking news headlines covered this event. And while most people would have learned of the Protestant Reformation in a day or two of study in public school classrooms, this event that happened five centuries ago really laid the groundwork for America as we know it today. Democracy, Freedom of Religion, Freedom to assemble, Freedom of Speech, all of these freedoms we take for granted can be traced back to a lowly German priest's fight with the hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church and his subsequent excommunication. Best-selling author and Speaker Eric Metaxas talks about his lengthy book that delves into why Martin Luther should matter to us today. And also, how perhaps the Protestant Reformation's purpose has taken a few left turns.
