Zwingli: Brave & Faithful Reformed Theologian!
Matthew Everhard
teaching
July 8, 2026
Who was Ulrich Zwingli—and why does he get so little respect compared to Martin Luther and John Calvin?
In this video, I argue that Zwingli may be one of the most misunderstood figures of the Protestant Reformation.
Many Christians know Zwingli only for one thing: his controversial view of the Lord’s Supper. Was he really just a “mere memorialist”? Or has church history unfairly reduced this great reformer to a caricature?
In this episode, we explore:
📖 Zwingli’s early life and incredible scholarship
🔥 How he preached justification by faith before hearing of Luther
🌭 The famous “Sausage Affair” that helped ignite the Swiss Reformation
⛪ His revolutionary commitment to expository preaching
⚔️ The Marburg Colloquy and his clash with Luther over communion
🛡️ Why modern Protestants owe far more to Zwingli than they realize
Whether you are Reformed, Presbyterian, Baptist, Lutheran, or simply interested in church history, this video will help you better understand one of the most influential—and often overlooked—leaders of the Reformation.
