Reforming Faith Virgil Wyaco Doody illustrates that domestic anticommunismThe Protestant Reformation brought significant changes to the shape of Christian life. Worship, preaching, catechesis, and prayer all changed enormously; a renewed focus on engaging the Bible took the place of other devotional acts; and schools and charitable institutions were reshaped and expanded. The Wittenberg theologians helped instill these new practices and understandings by reforming Protestant preaching, pedagogy, ecclesiology, and piety.
