Reformation

When we think of the Protestant Reformation, we no doubt immediately think of one of its most important figures: Martin Luther. While it is easy to remember Luther for his advances in Protestant theological thought, we often forget the advances he brought to church music. For Luther, however, theology and music could hardly be separated.

It’s been a good year to reflect on Reformed identity in the context of corporate worship. The 500th anniversary of the Reformation has provided ample opportunity to revisit the roots of our joint worship distinctives and practices. There is nothing more “reformed” than going back to the sources to reorient ourselves toward faithfulness in the present.
