Who was Ulrich Zwingli? (Swiss Reformer)

When you think of church history, you think of guys with big beards and big scrolls; you don't think of pastors who put on armour to go to war against medieval knights. In episode 4 of our reformation series, we meet the Swiss Reformer Ulrich Zwingli who even went head to head against our very own Martin Luther! Huyldrich Zwingli was born in Switzerland and grew up a Catholic, however as Zwingli was coming of age, he took a radical shift against the teachings of the papcy and instead led the Swiss in a protestant direction against Rome. Whether you're Protestant, Catholic, Agnostic, Islamic, Jewish or Atheist - this part of history is essential for understanding the world we live in today. #Christian #History #Zwingli #Switzerland
