In this live episode of the Thinking Fellows, Caleb, Scott, Steve, and Adam discuss why Martin Luther’s The Bondage of the Will is one of the most important yet most overlooked works of the Reformation.

They explore why Luther’s debate with Erasmus still matters today and how ignoring this work can lead to confusion about human will, divine grace, and the Gospel itself. Rather than being a cold philosophical text, The Bondage of the Willreveals the comfort of knowing that salvation depends entirely on God’s decision and not our effort.
