Reformation: The Individual Before God

The Amish today are peaceable folk, but five centuries ago their ancestors were seen as some of the most dangerous people in Europe. They were radicals - Protestants - who tore apart the Catholic Church. MacCulloch makes sense of the Reformation and reveals how a faith based on obedience and authority gave birth to one based on individual conscience.
