MoH PODCAST S4 E5 | The Tudors (Part 8): Edward VI - 'The Boy King'

In today’s episode, Minister Artie and Deputy Minister Anna dive into the fascinating yet often overlooked reign of Edward VI. Though his rule lasted just six years (1547-1553)-cut short by his death at age 15-Edward left an indelible mark on England’s history.
As a devout Protestant, Edward spearheaded significant reforms, including the introduction of an English-language Bible-a move so controversial it sparked rebellion. Under his rule, England took major strides toward becoming a firmly Protestant nation. And let’s not forget his dramatic decision to alter the line of succession, naming his cousin Lady Jane Grey as his heir to bypass his Catholic sister, Mary.
But why was Edward so passionately Protestant? Who wielded the REAL power (as he was still a child)? And what drove him to gamble with the crown’s future?
Join us as we uncover the answers to these questions and explore the brief but transformative reign of England’s boy king.
