Synopsis of Lecture:

Reformation is an on-going, never finished process. Historical Protestantism cannot claim ownership of Reformation; rather, denominations and religions as well as state and society constantly reform and renew themselves. As we are approaching the 500 Year Anniversary of the Reformation in Germany, one among several reformations in 16th century Europe, the public lecture will focus on the continuing relevance of the Reformation for global Christianity.
