Jan Hus

Jan Hus’s ideas were so sound, it’s amazing they were ever considered revolutionary.

Jan Hus hoped his incendiary preaching and heated rebukes would purify a tainted church, but the flames consumed him first.

As reformation divided Bohemia, it turned some of Hus’s most influential allies against him.

The Christian History Timeline

In De Ecclesia (The Church) Hus encourages Christians to trust God but question the Church.

The most powerful empire in Europe was no match for a peasant army led by a blind man.

The integrity for which Hus died lives on among Czech Christians.

Even in the midst of his campaign for reform, Hus never forgot the faithful flock back home.
