  • 2000 Years of Christ’s Power, Vol 4: The Age of Religious Conflict (Nick Needham)

    The Renaissance and Reformation were exciting times of learning and discovery – they pushed the boundaries of accepted thought. The repercussions of this, however, were that they left in their wake a period of universal uncertainty. The centuries-old status quo had been turned on its head. Nothing was stable anymore. Conflict ensued.

    The fourth volume of 2,000 Years of Christ’s Power spans from the 16th to the 18th century. It presents a time from which English Protestantism, Scottish Presbyterianism, and French Catholicism, to name only a few, were birthed and refined. Perhaps few eras have had such a direct impact on the characteristics of our own period of history.

  • Sketches from Church History: An Illustrated Account of 20 Centuries of Christ’s Power (S. M. Houghton)

    The most interesting church history we know of, loaded with fascinating artwork and photos. Many who formerly found church history boring have thoroughly enjoyed this book. Covers from the Apostles to missionary efforts of the 19th century.

    This book outlines the thrilling story of the onward march of the Church of Christ from the earliest times to the end of the 19th century. Far from a dry account of long-forgotten events and controversies, this volume is rather a moving and highly illustrated record of those who undertook the adventure of faith before us. Through their courage and steadfastness, they left an example as those who have gone before us, through times of prosperity and times of persecution, which should stimulate, warn and encourage the church in our own age to persevere in the same path, and obtain the same everlasting reward.
