Description
With a refreshing, stimulating, and highly visual approach, The Story of Christianity celebrates the 2,000-year history of the Christian church. This richly illustrated history progresses from the Old Testament to the present day, covering such diverse topics as the early martyrs, the conversion of Europe, the Crusades, the Reformation, and the rise of the Third World church. It examines the wide-ranging beliefs and doctrines of the church at the end of the 20th century. Contemporary quotes, maps, photographs, and artworks give an immediacy to the story while special features highlight the interplay between the church and the arts, and the political and philosophical movements of each century. This beautifully illustrated, clearly unique book encapsulates the essential history of the Christian faith. - from Amzon
