Martin Luther

Few people in history have had more impact on Christianity than the father of the Protestant Reformation, Martin Luther, who started out as a Catholic priest. So why did he turn away from the Catholic Church and change the world forever? Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains. Then meet Stephen Ray, a former Protestant who embarked on his own journey of discovery that ultimately led him to embrace Catholicism.

Chris Alar, MIC, and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on our weekly show, "Living Divine Mercy," airing on EWTN every Wednesday at 6:30 pm ET, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am ET.  Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina Diary excerpts, as well as real-life examples of people who are living Divine Mercy in their lives, you will learn why Jesus said Divine Mercy is mankind's last hope of salvation!
