Today we begin our continued quest to find the "real" Martin Luther" in the town of Coburg, Germany. The weather is a little chilly. We wil be visiting a famous castle here where Luther stayed and then on to an Augustian monistary. (Luther was an Augustian monk.) Tonight we sleep in Munich.
I have many impressions that linger in my mind, but the one I think of most often is the huge influence Luther has on faith and our freedom. His discovery of the Gospel and the certainty of salvation continues to provide us a freedom to live in joy and peace. Every morning we begin with selected readings from his writings and he continues to lift our spirits.
