Huldrych Zwingli played a pivotal role in the Swiss Reformation, serving as a pastor in various locations before becoming the Leutpriester of the Grossmünster in Zürich. He advocated for reform, questioned Catholic practices, and endorsed clerical marriage. Zwingli’s preaching style focused on Biblical interpretation, diverging from Catholic norms. He introduced a revised communion liturgy, engaged in disputes with Anabaptists, and established partnerships to advance religious reform. Zwingli’s influence continues to shape the beliefs and traditions of Reformed churches today.
