Cyril Lucaris - A Controversial Reformer

On June 27, 1638, Cyril Lucaris was ordered to board a boat, then strangled and thrown overboard. He was one of the most important patriarchs in the Orthodox Church. Why was he murdered? Was he really a Protestant? Join Emma, Grace, and Christian as they discuss this fascinating character with Rev. Mihai Corcea, pastor of the Evangelical Reformed Church of Bucharest, Romania.

Thank you Reformation Heritage Books for providing a copy of Simonetta Carr’s book, Church History, for our listeners. Congratulations, Jonathan C. from Jeffersonville, IN!
