<p class="just">Heerman received theological training as a result of a vow his mother made when he was very ill as a child. After ordination, he taught at the university, but in 1607, had to stop after he contracted an eye infection. Four years later, he became a deacon, then the Lutheran pastor, in Koeben. His ministry was interrupted several times by the Thirty Years&#8217; War, but the faithful minister resumed whenever the fighting died down. In 1634, medical problems forced him to stop preaching, and he finally retired in 1638.</p>
