 Online NewsHour: Man of Faith -- June 4, 1998
MARTIN MARTY: I have always found that in the discussion of the absence of God is where the presence is most felt, that in the wintry spirituality one sees more clearly.
MARTIN MARTY: You could explore faith and non-faith, faith of other faiths, faith in this environment.
MARTIN MARTY: Today, for all of the pluralism we have, for the fact that in any university classroom and in any subway, in any ballgame you might well have every religion ever known in ancient Greece, Rome, Egypt, and the yellow pages of today's phone book, there still are some kinds of insulations.

 Martin Luther
Martin Luther is at once a fascinating history, a story of immense spiritual passion and amazing grace, and a superb intellectual biography.
Martin Marty, one of today’s most respected theologians, is professor emeritus at the University of Chicago, where the Martin Marty Center has been founded to promote public religion endeavors.
People of any faith or of no faith can discover in his struggles and affirmations templates for their own paths, and will find him an engrossing subject, a person capable of living with apparent contradictions along with firm convictions.

 'Stop whining,' Martin Marty advises religion c
Marty began his speech by noting he hears "a lot of whining in religion" today--whining about the increasing secularity of the world and the indifference shown to religious belief.
Marty, an author, social researcher and former history professor at the University of Chicago, was a keynote speaker at Religion Communicators Congress 2000, a convention held every 10 years for professional communicators in the world's religions.
Rather than whining about what they can't do to express their faith, Christians ought to take advantage of all the ways they can express faith, Marty said, giving an illustration from the ever-raging battles over separation of church and state.

 Thursday Theology 285 - Martin Marty's SPEAKING OF TRUST. A Review.
Marty as a faithful pastor, for over half a century knows the value of that key word...trust...and I would agree, that this is what the book is all about.
Marty can be as tough as nails when he digs into the horrors of history or the l60,000 Christians who die under persecution in any given year.
I am convinced that all of the Apostles, prophets, seasoned church sufferers, and Luther had visions of eternity as they trudged through their respective lives.

 Martin Marty's Martin Luther - Books & Culture
Marty's answer is straightforward: "Had Luther not eventually come to display and preach confidence in the promises of God, not many of the thousands who shared his pilgrimage of faith or who were cheered and guided by his message and programs would have followed.
As Marty points out, Luther's posting of his famous 95 theses—literally by post to the Bishop of Mainz and perhaps also by nailing them to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg—was as much an academic reflex as it was a polemical challenge to the Catholic church.
Still, no two personalities could be less alike, and Marty does not hide his ambivalence toward the man who—also ambivalently—gave his name to one family of Christians in what is now a denominational division of labor.

 The University of Chicago creates new center named for retiring professor Martin Marty
Marty Center scholars will focus on communicating research conducted at the University’s Divinity School to the public.
By also involving graduate students in their research projects, Marty Center scholars will challenge them at the beginning of their careers to think of themselves as public intellectuals, engaged in research that will explain to the public the role that religion plays--for good and sometimes for ill--in world cultures.
When designing new research projects, scholars at the Marty Center will actively consult with religious, civic and professional groups in order to bring opinion makers into direct contact with scholars on the leading edge of research in religion.

 Interview with Dr. Martin Marty November 2001
Marty: Twenty-five or thirty years ago when I was working as the editor of The Christian Century, I did a column called Ex Libris in which I asked all manner of people for their top ten books.
Marty: American religion, including Christianity—which is embraced by four out of five Americans and nine out of ten religious Americans—moves in two ways: glacially and seismically.

 Thursday Theology #296 - Book Review of Martin Marty's MARTIN LUTHER
Marty divides his biography into four periods in the life of the reformer: 1483-1519 ("The Hunger for Certainty"), 1520-1525 ("Defining the Life of Faith"), 1525-1530 ("Living the Faith"), 1530-1546 ("The Heart Grown Cold, the Faith More Certain").
Ultimately, though, Marty's portrayal leaves us with what the reformer's "Anfechtungen" were all about, that is, the collision of the hidden God experienced in seeming arbitrariness and uncertainty and the revealed God seen in weakness in Christ.
That, indeed, was the question to a tee and Marty draws from Luther's answers in the reformer's three treatises of that year (Address to the Christian Nobility of the German Nation, The Babylonian Captivity of the Church, and The Freedom of the Christian).

 Faith's Familiar Face
“Marty is not God,” Appleby told the 1996 gathering of the Society for the Scientific Study of Religion, which gave the religious historian its career achievement award that year.
Marty not only became one of the Divinity School’s shining lights, but also the nation’s foremost scholar on church history.
But even then, 20 years ago, Martin Marty, PhD’56, who joined the Divinity School faculty in 1963, was the name you heard or read whenever (and pretty much wherever) theologians, pundits, politicians, and the media examined the impact of religion—or some aspect of religion—on the national psyche.

 Speaking of Faith America's Changing Religious Landscape: A Conversation with Martin Marty
Marty's book cited by Krista is Pilgrims in Their Own Land: 500 Years of Religion in America.
Marty's 2004 book, The Protestant Voice in American Pluralism, is published as part of the George H. Shriver Lecture Series on religion in American history at Stetson University.
One of the goals of the Christian message is to join together the people of the way, the way of an eternally given restlessness, and to win from that restlessness the participation in God, which is all that our mortality can deliver.

 Martin Marty remains on call
An increasing number of Americans, said Marty, embrace "spirituality," and welcome its presence in public life, while opposing such a role for "organized religions" they find threatening.
Religious faith is, in fact, a force that is almost impossible to pigeonhole, said Marty.
The church historian is, as Time said, America's "most influential living interpreter of religion." He has written 50- plus books, popular and scholarly, 40-plus years of weekly Christian Century columns and his Context newsletter will soon turn 30.

 Martin Marty
In 1879 the territory of Dakota was formed into an apostolic vicariate, and Dr. Marty was consecrated bishop of Tiberias in partibua on 1 February, 1880.
When he went to Dakota the Roman Catholic church had hardly any existence in the territory, and all the institutions and congregations that have been there established are his creation.

 Amazon.com: Books: Martin Luther: A Penguin Life (Penguin Lives)
Marty excels when he distills Luther's life into his anfectungen: his spiritual depression, doubt, and "spiritual separation anxiety." Luther battled the inner terror of doubts about his acceptance before God.
Not only does Dr. Marty finish the story of the movie, but he also takes the measure of the man in a surprisingly unbiased manner.
Luther calling the church a "mouth-house," his understanding of vocation, the idea of a "hidden God," and other areas too many to mention are nestled within the book, waiting for the reader to unwrap.

 Martin Marty accepts Laing Award from University Press
The “most influential interpreter of religion” in the United States today, according to Time magazine, Marty received the award at a Quadrangle Club reception for the first three volumes of Modern American Religion, a soon-to-be four-volume chronicle of 20th-century American religion and faith.
Modern American Religion, currently composed of three volumes: The Irony of It All, 1893-1919 ; The Noise of Conflict, 1919-1941; and Under God Indivisible, 1941-1960, is the first scholarly examination of 20th-century American religious history.
According to Marty, there are hundreds of works about the Puritans and the 18th-century Enlightenment, for example, but no comprehensive religious treatment of the 20th century.
