Happy Reformation Day


In honor of Reformation Day I thought that it would be appropriate to make a book recommendation to all of you dear readers.
 
"Pierre Viret: The Angel of the Reformation"
 
This book is written by R.A. Sheats about one of the foremost leaders of the reformation in French Switzerland.  Viret, along with William Farel and John Calvin, was one of the mighty instruments that the Lord used to draw His people back to the Truth. He was known for his gentle spirit even when boldly defending the truth of Scripture, and respected by his comrades and opponents alike.
 
I'm only a few chapters into the book, but have already been impacted by the life of this gentle follower of Christ. I'm sure that the rest of the book will be equal to the beginning, and I can't wait to learn more about how God worked through one of His servants.
