The Worldly Luther: Wholistic Living ERIC W. GRITSCH Lutheran Theological Seminary, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania I. BIOGRAPHICAL SNAPSHOTS “…In 1525 Luther married the twenty-six-year-old apostate nun Katharina von Bora, whom he called “Katie.” He was forty-two and embroiled in controversy. Why get married? Because, he said, such a worldly affair pleased God. But it did not please many of his friends and his foes; his faculty colleague and legal advisor, Jerome Schurff, declared, “If this monk marries, the whole world and the devil will laugh, so that everything he has accomplished will come to nought.”6 When Luther heard of the remark, he advanced the wedding date and let it be known that he had used the written condemnations of his marriage as toilet paper.7 The private wedding ceremony, arranged according to custom, took place on June 13, 1525; the public ceremony on June 27 was the social event of the year. Elector Frederick gave the Luthers the Augustinian monastery in Wittenberg as a home, together with a hundred guilders and a monthly salary to the bridegroom of two hundred guilders…” AVISE LA FIN 🐬⚜️❤️🔥🇻🇦🇺🇸⚕️
