Produktbeschreibung
1517. Wittenberg, Germany. Amid the cultural upheaval brought on by Dr. Martin Luther's Ninety-Five Theses is Heinrich Ritter, who is experiencing turmoil of his own. A law student at the university where Luther teaches, Heinrich is on the path to a career that will provide the income necessary for the welfare of himself and his sister. However, his interest, his passion, is theology, sparked by Luther's lectures and by the Word of God. Heinrich's life is further complicated by his host family's eldest daughter, Marlein, who has caught his eye but refuses to consider his courtship. Yet his immediate concern is Brigita, his sister, who arrives unexpectedly- hungry, hunted, frightened-and puts their future in jeopardy. Baughman's rich, authentic novel is set against the backdrop of the Reformation, showing how the reverberations of this religious reform echoed throughout the world and in the lives of ordinary people. A Flame in the Dark brings to life characters who lived not only during one of the most tumultuous times in history but also alongside one of its greatest figures. See how God's Word works in all of life's messy complications, no matter our place in history, to spread the fire of His love, mercy, and salvation.
