"Reformation's Rib "is a chancel drama detailing the life of Katherine von Bora (Martin Luther's wife). The historical script gives an insightful look into the husband and wife relationship that helped shape the writings of the founder of the Lutheran church. Originally written to celebrate the 500th anniversary of von Bora's birth, this easy-to-stage presentation calls for a cast of three: Katherine von Bora (Katie Luther), Martin Luther, and a narrator.
"Here is a preacher who has found his voice -- creative, imaginative, distinctively his own. Yet that voice is offered as an instrument of the gospel."
