As iron sharpens iron,
one person sharpens another. (Proverbs 27:17)

Author’s Note: The following account is fictional, but based on a composite of numerous historical facts. It serves as the backdrop to my forthcoming series in honor of the 500th anniversary of William Tyndale’s translation and publication of the New Testament in English. I hope you enjoy this letter, written to you today from a 16th-century plowboy.
“It was John Wycliffe and his followers who translated the Bible into English from Latin in the late 1300s. This led to the Lollards, who comprised England’s first Evangelical movement. From that movement came a man called William Tyndale, who had the drive to translate the New Testament into English from Greek, using Erasmus’ printed Greek New Testament.” - CPost
