If Martin Luther was the father of the Reformation, then his wife, Katie, was its mother. Intelligent, strong-willed, and curious, she is perhaps the only woman who could have been Martin’s match.
Katie blazed her own trail at a time when there were very few options for women. She risked her life to escape the nunnery and stood her ground in the face of opposition to her role as Mrs. Luther. Hardworking, fiercely dedicated to her family, and unwavering in her faith, Katie Luther is an enduring Christian role model.
This is the dramatic story of an extraordinary woman whose life amid religious, political, and cultural upheaval still inspires.
Now, in graphic novel style, here is the story of Katie Luther, mother of the Reformation.
