In the next two episodes we're continuing our look at the reformers. We've already looked at the ultimate reformer, Martin Luther, and the Reformation martyress Lady Jane Grey. Now we're moving the lens to the Swiss Confederation and pastor/reformer/soldier Huldrych Zwingli. Zwingli was the original leader of the Swiss Reformation and sometimes rival to Martin Luther. His Reformation arose almost simultaneous to Luther's - fitting as they were only born seven weeks apart - and in some ways his story parallels Luther's but there were irreconcilable differences that continue to linger today.
