A New History of Christianity

Vivian Green presents a historical study of Christianity from its origins to 1998. The coverage is inter-denominational, focusing on the dominant historical traditions of the Roman Catholic Church, the Church in England and the Orthodox Church, and including worldwide Christianity in Africa, America and Asia. In large measure, the book is concerned with the means by which the worldly and spiritual elements in Christianity have been constantly interwoven and traces the growth and development of Christianity from its beginnings, through the medieval period, the Reformation, the early modern Church, the Church in the 19th century, the Church in war and peace, and the crisis of the modern Church.
