Happy Reformation Day!


Today is Reformation Day - the day that marked the beginning of the Protestant Reformation in 1517. Now, most of you are celebrating Halloween today, but long before ghosts & goblins and trick or treat - a little German monk was hammering something very important to a great wooden door! On this day - way back then, Dr. Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany.

Tonight, Jon and I will "celebrate" Reformation Day with one of our favorite movies Luther and some treats of course! Now, you're probably thinking the same thing I was when Jon and I bought this movie (before seeing it) and brought it home to watch it.. "this is going to be lame, I'm so not interested in this kind of film..." Well let me tell you - I loved it!!! This truly is a great movie. The acting is terrific, the set is superb and the drama - really thrilling! So, go check it out and see what Reformation Day is all about.
