Church History, Volume Two chronicles the events, the triumphs, and the struggles of the Christian movement from the years leading up to the Reformation through the next five centuries to the present-day.Looking closely at the integral link between the history of the world and that of the church, Church History paints a portrait of God's people within the context of the times, cultures, and developments that both influenced and were influenced by the church.FEATURES:Maps, charts, and illustrations spanning the time from the thirteenth century to today.Explanations of all the major denominational movements, traditions, and schisms during and after the Reformation.Overviews of the Christian movement in Africa, eastern Europe, Asia, and Latin America to cover the scope of the ecumenical environment of the twenty-first century.Insights into the role and influence of politics, culture and societal norms, and technology on the Western church.Unbiased details on the major theological controversies and issues of each period.AUTHORS' PERSPECTIVE:Authors John D. Woodbridge and Frank A. James III wrote this history of the church from the perspective that such a history is the story of the greatest movement and community the world has known—as imperfect as it still is. It's a human story of a divinely called people who want to live by a divine revelation. It's a story of how they succeeded and how they failed and of how they are still trying to live out their calling.From the Reformation theologians in Europe to the revivalists, apologists, and Christian thinkers all over the world, the historical figures detailed are people who have struggled with the meaning of the greatest event in history—the coming of the Son of God—and with their role in that event and in the lives of God's people.

Want to know more about the history of the Christian church? The Learn Church History Pack offers a unique contextual view of how the Christian church spread and developed over the last 2,000 years. It did so, not in a vacuum, but in a setting of times, cultures, and events that both influenced and were influenced by the church. The pack contains Church History, Volume One by Everett Ferguson and Church History, Volume Two by John D. Woodbridge, and Frank A. James III. Volume One explores the development of the church from the days of Jesus to the years prior to the Reformation. Filled with maps, charts, and illustrations, it offers overviews of the Roman, Greek, and Jewish worlds; insights into the church’s relationship to the Roman Empire, with glimpses into pagan attitudes toward Christians; the place of art and architecture, literature and philosophy, both sacred and secular; and much more, spanning the time from the first through the thirteenth centuries. Volume Two shows how the church developed from the just prior to the Reformation and through the next five-hundred-plus years into the present-day. Filled with maps, charts, and illustrations, it gives primary attention to the history of Christianity in the West (western Europe and North America), but given the global and ecumenical environment of the twenty-first century, it also covers Africa, Eastern Europe, Asia, and Latin America. The Learn Church History Pack offers readers the opportunity to learn about the history and development of the Christian church from the time of Christ up until the present day. It is a valuable resource for students, pastors, ministry leaders, and interested lay people who want to better understand that last 2,000 years of church history.
