In this episode, we dive deep into the life and legacy of Martin Luther—the monk who sparked the Protestant Reformation and shook the foundations of Rome’s power. From the thunderstorm vow that led him to the monastery, to the 95 Theses that exposed indulgence corruption and the money machine behind it, we follow Luther’s rise as both reformer and lightning rod. We’ll unpack his core doctrines of Sola Fide and Sola Scriptura, his raw and unfiltered Table Talk, his rejection of Copernicus’s fraudulent heliocentric model, and even his later writings that mainstream historians twist or hide. Was Luther a lone man of conscience, or also a tool in the larger struggle between elites, bankers, and princes?
