For students and teachers of church history

Explains key events that shaped Christianity's growth

You will gain a deeper understanding of your faith

Discover the rich history of Christianity from the Early Church to the Reformation.

This informative, interesting, and consistently readable narrative history brings alive the people, dramatic events, and ideas that shaped the first fifteen centuries of the church's life and thought - including major events outside of Europe, such as the Spanish and Portuguese conquest of the New World. Historian Justo Gonzalez shows how various social, political, and economic movements affected Christianity's internal growth. Gonzalez skillfully weaves in relevant details from the lives of prominent figures from the apostles to John Wycliffe, tracing out core theological issues and developments as reflected in the lives and struggles of leading thinkers within the various traditions of the church. The history of the church, while showing all the characteristics of human history, is much more than the history of an institution or movement, Gonzalez stresses. It is a history of the deeds of the spirit in and through the men and women who have gone before in the faith."The Story of Christianity" demonstrates at each point what new challenges and opportunities faced the church, and how Christians struggled with the various options open to them, thereby shaping the future direction of the church. This fascinating introduction to the panoramic history of Christianity is perfect for students and teachers of church history, pastors, and general readers.
