La Reforma del siglo XVI constituyó un fenómeno de extraordinaria relevancia espiritual. Sin embargo, su importancia no quedó limitada a las cuestiones espirituales. El regreso a la Biblia abrió la puerta a recuperar valores relacionados con el trabajo, la educación, la economia, la supremacia de la ley o la veracidad. Fue también esencial para considerar de una manera distinta - biblica - a la mujer. Denominada 'la puerta del Diablo' por los teólogos medievales que incluso la definieron como un 'hombre defectuoso', la Reforma devolvió a la mujer su dignidad en áreas como la familia, el matrimonio, la sexualidad y la formación. De manera totalmente novadosa y no investigada con anterioridad, este libro relata cómo la Reforma cambió la visión de la mujer.

Born into a loving family, Dietrich Bonhoeffer pursued a life as a pastor, teacher, theologian -- and spy. He spoke out about the trouble in Germany when Adolph Hitler came to power, urging the Christian church to rescue disparaged people groups and resist Hitler's evil empire. Accused of being a troublemaker, Dietrich continued on fearlessly in the midst of wickedness. His work as a spy in the German resistance and participation in a plot to assassinate Hitler led to imprisonment and eventual execution. But the lesson of his life story remains: "Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act."
Seventeen-year-old Dwight Lyman Moody changed his name, moved to Boston, and began pursuing dreams of becoming a wealthy businessman. But God had other plans for him. Instead of business, evangelism would be his life's work. D.L. devoted his life to proclaiming the gospel, serving the poor, and mentoring fellow ministers. A leader of great vision, D.L. Moody served his fellow man through Civil War outreach, his Sunday school and church, and revival campaigns in America and abroad. His passion for bringing souls to Christ continues to be felt today in Christian education and ministry everywhere. (1837-1899)
From his earliest childhood, C.S. Lewis (1898 -1963) loved to hear and tell stories. Persuaded that stories could reveal the truth about the real world in a unique way, the literature professor would write more than thirty books, including science fiction, theology, literary criticism, and fantasy. In an era marked by two world wars, Lewis attacked tough questions about life and faith headfirst. Convinced that the story of Jesus Christ is the truest of all stories, and known for searching out the truth with honesty, clarity, and imagination, the former atheist would become one of the most influential Christians of the twentieth century.
