* Tell a little biography of Martin Luther.
Martin Luther was born in Eisleben, in the large pious family of miner Mansfeld. From the age of five, little Martin was already enrolled in a city school in Mansfeld. At the age of fourteen, his father sent him to study in Magdeburg and then to Eisenach. In 1501, Luther entered the University of Erfurt.
Once, having experienced a great shock during the thunderstorm, he vows to go to a monk and against the will of his father crosses the threshold of the Augustinian monastery, where in 1507 he was ordained a priest. In the winter of 1510-11, Luther and another Augustinian monk made a pilgrimage to Rome, which struck him with the false piety of the local clergy and the complete absence of the expected atmosphere of holiness in the Catholic capital. Disappointed but steadfast in his faith, Luther returned home and continued his studies and in 1512 defended his doctoral dissertation at the University of Wittenberg.

• Every Christian should seek the truth, even at the risk of prosperity, peace, and life.
