Description:
NOTE: This DVD also includes "In the Footsteps of Martin Luther."
It is claimed that there have been more books written about Martin Luther than anyone else other than Jesus Christ. In those lists pundits compile about who were the most influential in shaping our modern world, the name Martin Luther inevitably shows up near the top, usually in the top ten. He is one of those few who can be proclaimed indisputably a "hinge of history."
Yet Luther never wanted to be a renowned world shaper. He was more concerned to save his own soul and entered a monastery to get away from the world and seek his own salvation. But in finding his salvation, he rediscovered foundations of Biblical Christianity that shook the late Medieval world and challenged its assumptions about religious authority, what God was like, how we are to approach him, and how God saves us.
T.N. Mohan, producer and director of the award-winning documentary on the life of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Hanged on a Twisted Cross, returns to Germany to tell the story of its most famous son, interpreted from an overtly Protestant perspective. In this two-hour special, we come to understand Luther, what motivated him, the turning points in his life, the issues he confronted, the opposition that sought to defeat him, and the profound changes brought about under his leadership and ministry.
PART 1: Luther’s Life (70 minutes)
PART 2: Luther’s Legacy (60 minutes)

I bought this DVD based on the other reviews and frankly I was stunned when I got it. It looks like someone made it in a couple of days. It's just voice overs and pictures of old paintings and documents. No introduction, no comments by historians, no presenter visiting the places where events took place, no dramatic reenactments and no real analysis. It is boring beyond words.
To make this awful production complete the voice they use for Luther is ridiculous. He sounds like he's doing a voice ... Read More

This is a very thorough and complete look at Luther's life on his struggles and accomplishments in helping shape the modern world.It takes you to his place of birth in 1483 and every place in between until his passing in 1546. I have been deeply moved by whatching this. It's broken down into two parts, Luther's life (70 minutes) and his legacy (60 minutes). Then it finishes with a (27 minute )bonus feature In the footsteps of Martin Luther. It shows his immense faith he grew to gain in belief in the ... Read More

"Here I Stand: Martin Luther" is a superbly produced, enthusiastically recommended, 129-minute, full color documentary on the life, work, and historical impact of Protestant Reformation leader Martin Luther. This informed and informative DVD production is divided into two part: Luther's Life (70 minutes) and Luther's Legacy (60 minutes). Martin Luther, who began his ecclesiastical career as a German cleric of the Roman Catholic Church, never wanted to be a famous religious leader and challenger to the ... Read More

HERE I STAND is a Luther documentary, not to be confused with the drama LUTHER. Documentaries need not be boring, but this one is. Even so, there are worse things than boring--like deceptive, which this movie is not (in contrast to the revisionist LUTHER). HERE I STAND covers the length of Luther's life, including his peasant background, his struggles as a monk, his "born again" experience, his challenges to the authority of the Roman Catholic Church, and his Bible translation work (not the first to ...
