Step 2: Create a safe environment for the conversation. The setting matters. Think about where and when you'll have this talk. Avoid having it on the fly or in a hallway, as it might catch your pastor off guard. And, whatever you do, steer clear of...2023-11-2119 min

The historical context of Reformation Day revolves around the 16th-century Church, which had deviated from essential biblical teachings. Corrupt practices, such as the sale of indulgences (forgiveness for sins), had overshadowed the core message of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ.
