Luther never did challenge the church, his goal was to help reform the church, not to destroy it. His complaints were called the 95 Thesis and covered a wide variety of topics. His main complaints were that the catholic church was corrupt and that the church was selling indlugences. Indulgences were a piece of paper that guarenteed you to get into heaven, or a family member that had already died to get in heaven, as well as forgiveness for sins and so on... Luther's intentions were not to cause a split, but to fix the church's problems. However the corruption was really high-up, and so it was a big scandal which hurt Christianity forever.

Who created the Lutheran church?
His followers. I have been raised Lutheran and I have learned that Martin Luther's original intentions were not at all to break with the Catholic church, he in fact encouraged his followers not to break from the church, he just wanted to change the corruptness of it and focus more on the Bible. The way I understand it to be is that Martin Luther's followers (not Martin Luther, it was after his death) broke from the Catholic church because they recognized the strength of the church itself and were insulted by the fact that the Catholic church excommunicated Luther.
