“Luther & Katharina” ~ Book Review...

Oct 26, 2015 by

Welcome back to Rachel’s Back Talk! I’m so glad you could join me again. Today I am reviewing Jody Hedlund’s newest release, Luther and Katharina.   As is my custom, if I could ask Jody one question about Luther and Katharina it would be — “What made you want to write about the true story of Martin Luther?” And if you want to know why I asked that question, I guess you’ll just have to read the book to find out!   And without further ado, onto Rachel’s Back Talk!                                                                   From the Back Cover: In the 16th century, nun Katharina von...
