The Diet of Worms

I loved getting to chat with my friend @amy_mantravadi about her new novel, Broken Bonds, which is a historical fiction take on the feud between Erasmus and Martin Luther over free will. Amy is one of the smartest people I know and in this episode we not only talk about her incredible book but also her theological journey in which she proclaims the gospel with immense clarity!

🕯️✨️In the depths of our fear, confusion, and distraction, only Jesus can focus our eyes on him and speak a word of comfort, for he still speaks today. He is your savior, promised by prophets and born in Bethlehem, and because he has come for us, we can “Rise and have no fear.” ⁠ ⁠ Find more from His Gospel is Peace at www.1517.org/devo
