Reform in France and England
Church HistorySteve Gregg
In this historical overview, Steve Gregg discusses the Protestant Reformation in France and England. While Calvin's influence on French Protestantism was profound, Catholicism ultimately prevailed and French Protestants, known as Huguenots, were eventually driven out of the country. In England, the Reformation was led by figures such as William Tyndale and Thomas Cranmer and came about as a result of social factors and the upsurge of Renaissance humanism. Through a series of power shifts and conflict, the religious landscape of both countries changed drastically in the centuries that followed.
