William Tyndale was strangled and burned at the stake for translating the Bible into English, and giving the world the words of John 3:16. In this episode, we explore the story of the man who defied kings, outwitted bishops, scrapped with Thomas More and shaped both the English language and modern Christianity. Discover how one so-called “heretic” helped bring Scripture out of Latin shadows and into the hands and hearts of ordinary people.
