Rick Steves' Luther and the Reformation
Rick Steves' Europe © 2016 | Five hundred years ago, Martin Luther kicked off the Protestant Reformation, which contributed to the birth of our modern age. In this one-hour special - filmed on location in Europe - Rick Steves tells the story of a humble monk who lived a dramatic life. Rick visits key sites relating to the Reformation (including Erfurt, Wittenberg, and Rome) and explores the complicated political world of 16th-century Europe - from indulgences to iconoclasts, and from the printing press to the Counter-Reformation. It’s a story of power, rebellion, and faith that you’ll never forget. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #martinluther

I belong to the Roman Catholic Church but it is good to learn more about Luther's side of the story through this documentary. It is very informative and gave me another perspective of the faith. Thank you very much...
still catholic are practicing rally fel sory for them catolic i
How do you justify belonging to a team of child abusers?
@@bobsmith-qu2oq The sin of a handful should not be blamed on everyone. Everybody makes mistakes and yes, offenders need to be sanctioned. However, there are a lot of Catholics who are trying their best to live according to the good teachings of Christ. I hope you can also see the good side of the Catholic Church. It is not a perfect community; but then, every organization. group or community has its strengths and weaknesses. May God bless you!

Absolutely fabulous narrative . I truly admire Martin Luther. He stuck to his convictions in spite of powerful opposition and opened a totally new chapter in our understanding and practice of Christianity . Brave man.
What a wonderful documentary, we are deeply indebted to you Rick Steve's. This documentary should be preserved for posterity for the young people to know how religious freedom obtained. Yes a painstaking amount of hard work and research went to make this audio visual splendor. Finally we want more
I love this. I count myself very blessed to have had the chance to go to Europe. I went with my girlfriend and her parents in Aug, 1990. I got to see the Vatican, and several other cathedrals. This is a very powerful story. With lots of very important lessons to be learned. I hope that the people who see this are as moved as I was. I love the sound of a pipe organ. Thank you.
@@ianhobbs4984 get a life bro
doubt u was there. cause then u would know the vatican is not a cathedral
Saint Peters basilica is in Vatican city. Give him a break. I say it in Latin if you desire even more precision?
Wow! For anyone who has at least a small interest in this period and its ideas both religious and secular, this program is excellent. Did I write excellent? I meant to wrote EXTRAORDINARILY EXCELLENT! Well done Steve!
Luther's contribution to modern day Christianity is beyond words. Truly, this man was a world shaker that should never be forgotten.
I'm
could Jan Huss not be counted as one of Luther's inspiration though
I'm now 80, born in Amsterdam but moved USA by 12. Have a BA in History. Rick, this documentary blows me away, with such warring contrasting dogmas explaining the border lines today, This illustrative guiding on spot helps empower both my empathy and anger at 'religious' fanaticism as a justification for a brutality no other animal on earth would even consider. I think doing a video on Jewish history in Europe would be helpful right now.
Rick - this is one of your better documentaries. Thank you. But today I still see rich churches and the poor and homeless on their doorsteps. The Churches do not have any authority to be rich and what they hold should be shared out among those in most need.
Corporations are antichrist and run by nicolaitans, that is, clergy over the laity. Priests of Ba'al, basically. Christ's churches are a spiritual entity comprised of called out and assembled saints and any common property is held in trust for the Lord Jesus Christ. My pastor is as accountable to God's word as any other member and no man is above any other in the authoritarian sense. The body labors together and no one has any salary. But you'll never find but a few Baptists who ever so obeyed God, and Luther wanted us exterminated. Why? He's Rome's child. All the reformers are. Perhaps not all lost, but mostly.
Its not up to churches but you as an individual to help people. Didn't your church teach you that God tests our individual agencies to help alleviate suffering?
Also you aren't Christ. You don't get to tell any body of believers what they are to do. what you are describing is a byproduct of Nicolaitanism, which Jesus already condemned, and which the so called reformed so called churches practice openly.
Amen, God speaks of these false profits and how He wll deal with them in the end days [now}
Excellent discussion,
I'm not good at apologetics, but I would love to see Taylor Marshall debate this guy on how wonderful Luther was. He even added the word Alone to faith until even his own supporters took exception.
Luther was a master con artist. His motivation to leave the Church wasn’t inspired by any saintly reforming zeal, but rather to justify his immoral and frankly mentally unstable appetites. He capitalised on the corruption of the day to justify leaving the bride of Christ. God have mercy on him!
Thank you for this enriching documentary! Having grown up as a Methodist, the hymn A Mighty Fortress Is Our God has inspired our congregations many times! 🙏🎶🎹
A masterwork, Mr. Steves. The depth and breadth of your commentary illustrates and motivates the arc of human civilization. You are so far beyond being just a great tour guide pointing out the sights.
Outstanding documentary Mr. Rick Steves. I love church history and I am always looking forward to my next trip to the "Luther Trail" for further hands-on study :). God Bless.
Like Abraham Lincoln, I find myself drawn to Martin Luther every October 31 as his personality and bravery still calls to us. Truly a brave man! I can only imagine his feelings as he moved from one spiritual place to another. Thank you for the documentary...please do keep producing them.
He put himself above the church
@@koppite9600he never wanted to separate the church, but to reform it. He was a Catholic priest who pointed out the irony of non religious practices and abuses of the Church.
@@mic1240 when David wanted to build The Temple he was told no. Solomon came and built it. Luther built without any permission, was he sure God had no one to come after him and reform the Catholic Church? Luther fell into the temptation of building a seperate church.
@@koppite9600 your history is inaccurate. He had no desire to build a distinct church, he wanted reform, as did others. many reforms he and others wanted have come to the Catholic Church. The decisions the Catholic Church mane which had zero to do with Biblical teachings or religious basis, and societal factors (including Luther’s belief all people should be able to read, printing press, etc) fueled.
Rick is more like a professor of religious studies in this video than a tour guide. Rick is much more than a video tour guide and vacation guru, he is also obviously a man of deep faith and religious study.
He is Lutheran! ;o] He shoudl know all of this!!!! God Bless Rick for sharing hte truth!
I really like Rick’s travel videos, but he made a mistake in entering into religious themes such as this. His obvious Lutheranism shaded the presentation and has contributed to the division
Thank you Rick Steves and your team for producing and presenting this important episode in history so clearly. It certainly puts more recent wars into perspective for me.

I was blessed to go "In the Footsteps of Martin Luther" in 2000 with a group led by a Lutheran pastor from Arlington, Tx. It was an unforgettable 2-wk tour & there were many Lutherans from USA. We visited that year in order to attend the world famous Passion Play, performed every 10 years by the people of the little town of Oberammergau. It was an experience I will never forget! We visited site of Luther's birth and death. It was all very educational & inspirational.
Well, he is your messiah.
Perhaps the best Luther's phrase: " Every good Christian must read and write". Amazingly the women took up this task massively. God bless you all. Thank you for this wonderful video.
ah but Luther never got to text a emoji tho
Please go to the English Wikipedia and see the doctrine of Martin Luther against the Jewish People. Hittler used that doctrine to gain power in Germany, it was in the culture of Lutheran church against the Jewish people. He did followed the Catholic Church doctrine against the Jeswish people. He did translate the bible and did not learned the doctrine of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Thank you Rick Steves and associates, for helping us to more easily see our wonderful world and it's amazing history.
Rick Stevens you remind me of the awesome Parishoner that adopted and hosted me for personalized tour of the Presidents Church St. John's just a few blocks from the White House. By chance,my Brother in Faith, was that you? Claude Oliver
@@claudeoliver6138 Is he Claude Oliver?
Wonderful job, Rick. Thank you for doing justice to this still controversial topic. Excellent show.
Another great video, Rick. I wish I'd have had you as my history teacher in school. Strange though, that I have missed this video for four years.
n Luther's time, the Catholic Church was vast and the Pope could not possibly know everything that is happening within each Church. Modern communication, like phones, telegraph, and the internet did not exist. The undeniable fact that individual Catholics (perhaps the best known of them being the German Dominican Johann Tetzel [1465-1519]) did sell indulgences--but in doing so they acted CONTRARY to explicit Church regulations. This practice is utterly OPPOSED to the Catholic Church's teaching on indulgences, and it cannot be regarded as a teaching or practice of the Church. In the 16th century, when the abuse of indulgences was at its height, Cardinal Cajetan (Tommaso de Vio, 1469-1534) wrote about the problem: "Preachers act in the name of the Church so long as they teach the doctrines of Christ and the Church; but if they teach, guided by their own minds and arbitrariness of will, things of which they are ignorant, they cannot pass as representatives of the Church; it need not be wondered at that they go astray." The Council of Trent instituted severe reforms in the practice of granting indulgences, and, because of prior abuses, "in 1567 Pope Pius V canceled all grants of indulgences involving any fees or other financial transactions" (Catholic Encyclopedia). This act proved the Church’s seriousness about removing abuses from indulgences. ************************************* Yes, the Catholic Church has indulgences, but they were not for sale. They were personal sacrifices made for sinners, so that God would intervene on their behalf, like fasting and praying. If we ignore the fact of indulgences, we neglect what Christ does through us, and we fail to recognize the value of what he has done in us. Paul used this very sort of language: "Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I complete what is lacking in Christ’s afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church" (Col. 1:24)

This was my favorite Rick Steves program. I like learning about all of the European places and their history, but very little has affected my life and the society I live in like the European struggle to understand and appropriate their understanding of God.
Rick. Thanks for the Church history as a member of the CofE I enjoyed your discussion of Martin Luther and his later companions.The history of Rome as the thoughts of Luther about church and power and helping the poor not gaining power for power.Great thoughts from this program thanks,Like the session a history session of the reformation.
Excellent and Educational! I have watched several documentary videos on the Reformation and Luther recently and this is by far the BEST! We need to get this shown on PBS TV!
An enlightening presentation to the history of Martin Luther with lessons to be learned regarding suppression of rational, logical understanding and open debate of current global events that we are experiencing today.
Thank you for an incisive and inspiring presentation of Luther's doubt, faith, courage and action. You put your heart into this. Well done.
Janet Clark..... Sure right.... You forgot to stay all the people he had murdered for not believing in his beliefs and interpretation
@@stevenmotta8207 I was letting Rick Steves know I appreciated his work.
@@stevenmotta8207 You forgot all the people the Church had killed for being heretics.
@@stevenmotta8207 Who did Luther murder???? Please cite the source of your statement
@David Ortiz What's the point? I can say, read the Hussite Wars. Muntzer supported the revolt. And the cause was not about being Catholic (actually many weren't) it was about the oppressive taxes by the nobility. They revolted because they thought they had the Tacit approval of Luther (priesthood of believers doctrine). The peasants revolt followed the Knights Revolt, headed by Franz von Sickingen (Live 5 kilometers from where he died). Why did Luther object to the revolts, he didn't war. He doesn't help himself by his writing style. He also felt that war would only hurt the reformation movement. Heck Even Engels recognized the war was class struggle and not religious. I suggest you read more than just stuff that reinforces your bias.
"which contributed to the birth of our modern age". Such powerful words. Never had their been a greater increase in knowledge than since this time and it was in a large part due to Luther. He saw how the Church was keeping people ignorant so he encouraged teaching of the masses. This concept, along with Gutenberg's printing press, are what caused Germany to be such a center of knowledge and education which lead to this explosion of knowledge.
Bill Green. Did it not also make Germany the envy of other countries, who then knocked them of their perch with two world wars. They have clawed their way back, be interesting as to what their future is.

@@sidneycabianca8768 Thanks for the tip. I think I'll check it out.
@@wilhelminglis494 That's exactly what happened. It seems there is a competing sense of power when one country gets too powerful, the others will put it in its place.
The best video on Martin Luther and the reformation I’ve ever seen. Rick is fair about the challenges that Martin Luther struggles with yet he shows the goodness and world changing courage he exemplified.
Crikey, if that is the case I feel sorry for the other videos you've watched.
Excellent! I had no idea Steves could produce a historical documentary. Well done.
steves can do anything bro
Thank you for this video .. Due to this corona virus outbreak we are learning history from this KZhead video Martin Luther..
I have read all of Luther's Table Talk. He never said any such thing. You are a liar and The Truth is Not In You.
Honestly, this is the best answer I've gotten to a question I was not sure how or whom to ask without getting a bunch of historical bias. Thank you.
What is your question?
Steve's opinion is slightly biased too.
I'm also curious about her "question".@@carolgoering6585
Thank you dear Steve This is an amazing educational and interesting narration of history in such a sweet polite manner Long live your spirit of traveling and learning
This is a great presentation, a different look at Rick Steves. Always the great storyteller.
Who is Rick Steves?
Brilliant ! Compliments for clarifying and commending the contribution of Martin Luther. he indeed was a reformer in true sense.
Ajay Sabharwal He really didn't reform anything. He started a new church.
wonderful work it is rick. still God lives in many lives in HIS own way to love and serve the humanity.

In my class assignment I am representing this fellow reformer Martin Luther.Thanks to this Vid I have more understanding of this wonderful reformer the father of Protestantism.😊
This is one of the very best documentaries I have ever watched. Thank you.
Well done. What a coherent, well researched, richly approached from many angles and perspectives, presently with maximum clarity piece of work, hence very enlightening. I think schools can learn from this kind of presentation to provide effective teaching, especially in history lessons. Keep up the good work, Steve, and please do not confine yourself to travel shows, only, which are themselves so great. Thank you, again.
What an awesome work of research and chronicling the history, really powerful , gracefully done , hats off to the marvellous work , looks effortless amidst the hard work beneath , thanks Rick Steaves !
🤍thank you Jesus that I’m saved by grace through faith and not through works so that I may boast. God you’re so merciful and gracious❤️
So is an unrepentant mass murderer also saved if only he believes in Jesus? Works are not to boast but to show charity as Jesus taught us what the first and second most important rules are
Gg
If you are angry with your brother, you deserve the same condemnation as a murderer. Remember the sermon on the mount. And a regenerate heart will lead to a different life.

Oh, I wish I could have been there
I too did the 500th anniversary tour and it was amazing! To see the churches and places where Martin Luther lived was a dream come true! Great history and customs in Germany! Very fortunate to do it.

BRILLIANTY described! Love and enjoyed watching.
I laughed "that societies earn freedom as they evolved". That is the very opposite of what I see happening today. The story of Luther trying to end avarice and corruption is a noble cause. He would be turning in his grave if he were aware of the corruption that now envelops every walk of life today. How far we have fallen.
I wholeheartedly agree.
So true! Examples abound, but take a look at pro sports--- the absurd money these athletes are making is corrupting, even if unintended. I look with dread at how greed & yearning for big $$$$ will end up getting our earth destroyed. 😣
A great tribute to history. I am a historian of many years and have found this so informative. Thank you

I really enjoyed this video. I am Lutheran and it really brought together what I knew already and learned things I did not know as well. I have visited England and Europe several times and have seen the Vatican and the great cathedrals, but I have never visited the places in Europe that Luther resided. I am very comfortable with the ideas of Luther, and I have been married to a Catholic and have attended with her for her services for 45 years that has made for interesting discussion. I have had my own times for attending a Lutheran church on Sunday mornings while she sleeps late and we attend her services on Saturday evenings. It has worked out well.
That's interesting. By the way I am a Loveless. My family is from Alabama.
@@latrelleodom9484 My Dad was able to do a family tree back to the 1700s with a person from England who settled in southwestern Virginia (Kentucky territory). Captured in the Revolutionay War and taken to Fort Detroit per an Ohio war benefits manuscript my Dad found somehow was taken to British Fort Detroit by Indians and later released, The manuscript was used to apply years later for war benefits. Somehow he resettled in northeastern Ohio and is where my Dad's family lived for generations making it easier for a family tree from cemetery sites. I think the original John Loveless from England had a large family of brothers so you never know. My Dad's direct Lovelees family in Ohio is no longer there. My Dad made his way here to St. Louis (via nearby Scott AFB) via the Air Force. My Dad's brother married a Mormon in Alaska from his days in the Air Force and my Dad enjoyed helping out his brother's wife with genealogy that is important to them.
How do you cope in terms of scripture? You attend a protestant church and she attends a pagan church?
@@michaelseleke7127 You have to look at the big picture. When I worked in Audit for most of my working years my boss would always remind us to not miss the forest by looking at trees.

I have the PBS DVD Martin Luther. It is one of my very favorites out of my hundred-plus PBS DVDs.
Luther's love for music carried over to the most venerated composer of his generation, Joaquin des Prez. Luther said Josquin, "makes the notes do what he wants them to."
I'm thankful to my family for an education in the Lutheran faith. And thanks to our Lord that Pastor lived and succeeded in the tasks God gave him.

That was really good. I didn't know what to expect, but I was impressed how thorough and informative that was. I feel smarter now.
This is an excellent piece knowledge. I need it saved for posterity and in my device.
Martin Luther had OCD, mental obsessions that attacked his faith. It's something that I battled with and it caused so much anxiety. It's one of the worst trials I've ever had to go through. It's ONLY by the grace of God that I got through it.
Yes, obsessions and compulsions can be reduced through grace!!
