As the Reformation reshaped Europe, another force threatened it from the East: the advancing armies of the Ottoman Empire. For many Christians in the 16th century, the rise of Islam and the specter of jihad brought fear, confusion, and questions about God’ s judgment and the end of the world. In Martin Luther and the Turkish Jihad, historian and apologist Adam Francisco offers a clear, engaging look at how Luther responded to this crisis. Drawing from Luther’ s sermons, pamphlets, and pastoral letters, Francisco reveals how the Reformer guided Christians not through politics or panic, but with Scripture, prayer, and unwavering faith in Christ. Written at a popular level, this book introduces readers to a little-known but timely aspect of Reformation history. Perfect for church history enthusiasts, pastors, students, and anyone interested in how theology speaks into times of war, fear, and cultural upheaval.
