Reformed ThinkingDeep Dive into Foxe's Book of Martyrs by John Foxe - Archbishop CranmerThomas Cranmer's life was a journey deeply intertwined with the political and religious upheaval of the English Reformation. Beginning at Cambridge, he developed a principle of prioritizing Scripture over ancient fathers in theological study.

International Christian Classics (Biblically Reformed And Confessional)The 39 Articles Of The Church Of England by Reformer Thomas Cranmer & Co [Christian Audiobook] | International Christian ClassicsThe Thirty-Nine Articles of the Church of England, established in 1563 and revised in 1571, outline the core doctrines of Anglicanism amid the Reformation. They assert belief in the Holy Trinity and the authority of Scripture as the primary source for faith and practice. The Articles affirm the necessity of the Old Testament and reject any teachings not grounded in the Bible. They emphasize that salvation is through faith alone, with good works being a fruit of that faith rather than a means to earn salvation.

Saint Paul’s SermonsCranmer's Vision for the Book of Common Prayer: Unified, Understandable, and Reformed - Rev Dcn Bryan DenchArchbishop Thomas Cranmer was a visionary walking a difficult path to bring Reformed Christianity to England. Henry VIII if anything remained Roman Catholic while making himself head of the English church, but his appointed Archbishop of Canterbury was solidly and biblically reformed. In developing the prayer book, Cranmer skillfully achieved several goals:
1. Unify all worship and practice into one "common" prayer book for clergy and laity.
2. Put it in English (not Latin).
3. Incorporate solidly reformed doctrine in place of the theology of Rome.
4. Reinforce belief regularly.
