Read Excerpt
ISBN-13:
Mark Noll, one of America’s leading church historians, offers a new edition of his popular survey of church history. This volume isolates key events that provide a framework for understanding the history of Christianity and presents Christianity as a worldwide phenomenon rather than just a Western experience.
Now organized around fourteen key moments in church history, this well-received text provides contemporary Christians with a fuller understanding of God as he has revealed his purpose through the centuries. This new edition includes a new preface;updates throughout the book;revised further readings for each chapter;and two new chapters, including one spotlighting Vatican II and Lausanne as turning points of the recent past. It also features a two-color interior and study questions.
Students in academic settings and church adult education contexts will benefit from this one-semester survey of Christian history.
This book is accompanied by free online resources. Click the red eSources banner above for more information.
