About this audiobook
By the end of his brief life Ulrich Zwingli would change the religious landscape of his home and the world. It wasn't until the last few years of his life that he became a reformer. He fought for truth and righteousness with his mind and pen, he fought for lost souls to hear the good news of Jesus Christ, and at the age of forty-seven, as an army chaplain, he was killed on the battle-field. The Shepherd Warrior, Ulrich Zwingli, fought the good fight.With his last strength he voiced his victory: "They can kill the body but not the soul!"

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This audiobook - written to bring the story of a great reformer to children - is quite fair in its presentation of Zwingli's enemies, especially Catholics.I am a Catholic, so naturally I disagree with his viewpoints. It is important to know that this biography is partisan. Its audience is protestant children, not my Catholic children.It is also good for adults who would like to learn more about Zwingli without having to invest the time or energy into a more academic biography (there are much fewer biographies of Zwingli than Luther or Calvin!)
