Church History, Volume One

Church History offers a unique contextual view of how the Christian
church spread and developed. 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. Church History looks closely at the integral link between the history
of the world and that of the church.






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.
