Katharine von Bora: The Morning Star of Wittenberg

“Where should our teaching of the historical Reformation begin? With young children. Here is a brilliant and effective way to introduce …[Katharine von Bora’s] exciting life, [as] she married the number one most-wanted man in the Holy Roman Empire, Martin Luther, guided their family through trying times, and set a Christian example so badly needed in our day.”

“During the 500th anniversary year of the Reformation, you are likely to hear stories about Martin Luther. You may hear stories of Luther’s friends and adversaries or Luther’s patrons and lieutenants. But, it is far less likely that you’ll hear this story: the story of the woman who stood with Luther, encouraged Luther, loved Luther, and bore Luther’s children. This may be one of the most important of all the stories of the Reformation—and thankfully, the very gifted Strackbein family has told this story beautifully, powerfully, and delightfully.”
