John Wycliffe

John Wycliffe Synopsis

John Wycliffe wanted everyone to have access to the Bible, not just the rich, powerful and well-educated. He was a Catholic priest who wasn't happy with the way things were being done in the Church.

Through compelling storytelling, readers will discover how Wycliffe's ground breaking work in translating the Bible into English laid the foundation for future reformers. Having a profound impact on the Christian faith, Wycliffe's unwavering commitment to making the Scriptures accessible to all people meant he was a forerunner for the English Reformation.
