John Wycliffe was known as the “Morning Star” of the Reformation. His doctrines of strict adherence to the Bible and his attacks on the wealth and corruption of the Catholic Church would be the spark that would later ignite the fires of the Protestant Reformation.

Inside, you will hear about:

  • Early years
  • Accused of heresy
  • Conflict with the church
  • Translating the Bible
  • Transubstantiation and exile from Oxford
  • Later life and death
  • And much more!

John Wycliffe was a man of the people who believed all should be allowed a personal relationship with God, and his scriptures gave the world the first English translation of the Bible. He is remembered as a brilliant scholar, philosopher and theologian, and a compelling preacher who touched the hearts and minds of noble and commoner alike.
