Church History II

353 pages

What happened to the church after the Reformation in the early 1500s? This book takes up the story where Volume 1, Church History: Resurrection to Reformation, ends. It follows the churches founded by Luther, Zwingli, Calvin, and the Anabaptists and covers the resulting Catholic Counter-Reformation. It follows the European explorers, merchants, and missionaries who spread Christianity to Africa, Asia, and the Americas.

This account of Christianity from the end of the Reformation to the beginning of the twenty-first century helps us understand some of the influences that have shaped the landscape of the church. From monasteries to missionaries, from Martin Luther to D.L. Moody, from Moravians to the Moral Majority, from Methodists to Mennonites, you can read about them all in this second volume of Church History.
