The Arts & Entertainment Network showed a program entitled Biography of the Millennium. They announced that the third place slot had been awarded to none other than Martin Luther for his unwavering and uncompromising beliefs that led to the Reformation. The narrator esteemed Martin Luther’s religious convictions, and spoke of Luther’s love for the Word of God.

I was so astonished because these judges, comprised of secular scholars, scientists and media consultants, had selected a man of God. I missed who was chosen for the number two spot. However, to my sheer amazement, Johann Gutenburg was their choice for Person of the Millennium. Can you believe it? They talked about how Gutenburg’s first major undertaking after inventing the printing press and moveable type was to print 200 Bibles. They also shared how his genius had put the Word of God into the hands of so many people that it literally changed the face of Western civilization.
