Heroes are often underrated.
Our world honors and extols people with great intelligence, physical abilities, or outward beauty, while the meek, the humble, and the lowly are often passed by.
But “the Lord sees not as man sees.” (1 Samuel 16:7, ESV)
In this podcast, we document the stories of Christian heroes—people who may not have been highly esteemed by the world, but who were truly great in God's sight.

Philipp Melanchthon: Nothing but Heaven
Most of us who have heard of Melanchthon at all tend to think of him as Luther's shy, soft-spoken sidekick. This is somewhat true, but it's a mere fragment of the big picture. If Martin Luther was the beating heart of the Reformation, then Philipp Melanchthon was its brains. You won't want to miss this episode of Great in God's Sight as we explore the life and contributions of one of the Protestant Reformation's most intelligent, systematic thinkers.

Katherine Parr: The Survivor
Divorced, beheaded, died; divorced, beheaded, survived!

In this episode of Great in God's Sight, meet Katherine Parr, a fearless woman of the Reformation and the sixth wife of Henry VIII, who outlasted him by nearly two years. Your understanding of the English Reformation will never be the same!
