Praise for the Zondervan Essential Companion to Christian History “It includes a welcome emphasis on a global perspective, as well as highlighting the role of women in relation to many of the key developments in the church. It comes highly recommended.” - Lucy Peppiatt, Principal, Westminster Theological Centre, UK From the Author “Lots of books delve deep into the details of a particular tradition, time or place. My book gives an overview of the entire whole, covering every country and era that has been touched by Christianity. Along the way it allows for readers to focus in on key people or events, and there is a wealth of images to accompany the text, indicating the rich intellectual, visual and cultural diversity of Christianity worldwide.” -Stephen Backhouse, Author of the Zondervan Essential Companion to Christian History The Essential Bible Companion The Essential Bible Dictionary The Essential Companion to Life in Bible Times The Essential Bible Companion to the Psalms Zondervan Essential Atlas of the Bible The Essential Bible Companion Add to Cart Buying Options Add to Cart Buying Options Add to Cart Add to Cart Customer Reviews 430 — 53 66 280 430 Price $24 39 — no data $26 20 $15 99 $11 97 $24 39 Page Count 152 240 144 192 160 Softcover Author(s) John H.
