For most of the country Friday will be a great time of fun and trick-or-treating for nation’s children. We can also look back and remember a man who shook the very foundations of the church to their core. Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses on October 31, 1517 and began what we call today, the Reformation. We can thank God that we have a church who bases their teachings on Scripture alone and on Christ alone, being saved by his grace alone.
