Christian history is filled with moments that shaped the Church, from milestones and triumphs to tragedies and controversies, as well as the lasting impact of influential believers.

Every week brings anniversaries of events spanning more than 2,000 years, some well-known by most modern-day Christians and others that might have been largely forgotten.

Here are three notable events from this week in Christian history, including the start of the Protestant Reformation, Doug Phillips resigning from Vision Forum, and the death of Ethiopian Church leader Salama III.
