Hello there and welcome to the Thinking Fellows podcast.

My name is Caleb and this show is brought to you by the 1517 Podcast Network.

Go to 1517.org forward slash podcasts to see all of our shows.

You can also find lots of other materials at the 1517 website, including blogs, books, speaker engagements,

videos of pasting speaker engagements.

I mean, there's just a lot of resources.

And as we move forward, those are going to become more and more accessible throughout

the year.

So thank you for listening to the thinking fellows.

We are in our fourth episode of the history of the Reformation.

And we didn't make much progress as far as years ago last episode.

But that was intentional.

We stopped at around 1520 in Luther's life in the last episode

because 1521 is going to be very significant. And now we're

going to actually backtrack and cover the same period of time we did in the last episode. But we're

going to introduce a new quote unquote character to the Reformation. And this is part of a plan because

you know, talking to Adam and Ron Scott here, the plan is to do this very detailed.

And we're going to do more than just Lutheran characters in the Reformation.

We're going to branch out and try to give as complete picture of this time period as possible.

And so, yes, we're going to add characters to the story as we go along.

And the next, you know, the next big name on the roster is Philip Melanchthon.

And we have done an episode or two or three or four on Melanchthon.
