Protestantism, a significant branch of Christianity, has shaped the course of history with its diverse beliefs and influential figures. From Oliver Cromwell leading his troops at the Battle of Edgehill during the English Civil War to Martin Luther nailing his 95 Theses on the door of Wittenberg Castle Church, Protestants have left an indelible mark. The Scottish Covenanters proudly waved their flag as they fought for religious freedom against oppressive rulers. Meanwhile, Jonathan Edwards preached powerful sermons that ignited spiritual awakenings in colonial America. John Calvin's teachings on predestination and divine sovereignty continue to shape Protestant theology today. In Lewes, East Sussex, burning crosses illuminate the night sky during the annual bonfire night parade—a reminder of historical conflicts between Catholics and Protestants. Satire against Martin Luther highlights how even within Protestantism itself, there are differing opinions and interpretations. As dawn breaks over Dresden Frauenkirche in Germany or twilight descends upon Londonderry/Derry's Peace Bridge and skyline in County Londonderry, we witness symbols of peace amidst a tumultuous past marked by religious divisions. John Calvin stands alongside four syndics at Geneva—his influence extending beyond theological realms into governance. Westminster Abbey in London serves as a testament to centuries-long Protestant worship and tradition. And finally, gazing upon John Donne's portrait from c. 1595 reminds us that individual voices within Protestantism have contributed greatly to literature and intellectual discourse throughout history. From battles fought to ideas debated; from reformations sparked to art inspired—Protestantism continues to be a force that shapes our world today.
