The Hussites: The Amazing Story of the "First Reformation"
In this video I introduce the Hussites, the Bohemian Reformers inspired by Jan Hus, drawing from the 15th century Hussite historian Laurence of Brezona. I give an overview of how they were persecuted and then explore the theological reforms they initiated, particularly focusing on their theology of the Eucharist. I conclude with one cautionary lesson for Protestants today.
Truth Unites is a mixture of apologetics and theology, with an irenic focus.
