Almost a Reformer: How Erasmus of Rotterdam Fueled the Reformation but Personally Stopped Short - with Shane Angland

Theology for the People

Desiderius Erasmus is one of the most important figures in the history of the Protestant Reformation. He was a key thinker, and the compiler of many of the manuscripts that were used in translating the Bible from Greek and Hebrew into languages of the people. He was also in communication with many of the key figures of the reformation, like Martin Luther.

And yet, Erasmus stopped short of being a Reformer. In this episode, I speak with Shane Angland about this intriguing person, what contributions he made, and why he fell short.

Shane Angland is from Ennis, Ireland and holds a Masters of Divinity from Dallas Theological Seminary.
