Protestant Reformation: SWBAT Describe The Cause and Effects of The Protestant Reformation

The document summarizes the Protestant Reformation led by Martin Luther. It discusses that Luther, a German monk, nailed his 95 Theses challenging the Catholic Church in 1517. This sparked the Protestant Reformation as people protested the Church's corrupt practices like indulgences. Luther believed salvation came through faith alone and people should read the Bible themselves. As a result, Lutheranism was formed as the first Protestant faith, separating from the Catholic Church. Other reformers like Calvin and Henry VIII also challenged the Church's authority, starting new Protestant denominations.
