Description

Turning the world upside down was a messy business. The Reformation had left universal uncertainty in its wake, and the Renaissance that followed pushed the boundaries of accepted thought even further. As a result, nothing was stable anymore, leading to conflict and upheaval. This fourth instalment of 2,000 Years of Christ's Power explores the complex history of English Protestantism, Scottish Presbyterianism, and French Catholicism from the 16th to the 18th century. It delves into key events such as the birth and coming of age of these faiths, including Germany and the Lutheran Faith, the Thirty Years' War, the Arminian Controversy and the Synod of Dort, Puritanism, the Glorious Revolution, persecution in France, and missionary movements. Academically reliable and accessible, this book features a glossary to make church history a subject for everyone. Nick Needham's work is praised for tackling the challenging task of writing the 2000-year history of the church, making it a worthwhile read for those interested in understanding this pivotal period in history.
