Media Reviews
It is always essential for us to supplement our reading of theology with the reading of church history... If we do not, we shall be in danger of becoming abstract, theoretical and academic in our view of truth; and, failing to relate it to the practicalities of life and daily living, we shall soon be in trouble.
a wise and breathtaking panorama of almost two thousand years of the history of the church with observations and insights in every single chapter.
Rev. Geoffrey Thomas, Aberystwyth, Wales
In an age where Christians are increasingly ignorant of their historical roots, Dr Campbell has done us a great service by achieving the near impossible: covering 2000 years of church history in twenty brief but highly informative chapters. A great place to start for anyone who wants to deepen their understanding of how the church has witnessed to Christ throughout the ages. --Carl R. Trueman Paul Woolley Professor of Historical Theology and Church History, Westminster Theological Seminary, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
. . .a very helpful tool for equipping oneself with knowledge of what God was doing in earlier eras, and hence for understanding what he is doing worldwide today. --David Wright (1937-2008) Senior Lecturer in Ecclesiastical History, New College, University of Edinburgh
. . . a wise and breathtaking panorama of almost two thousand years of the history of the church with observations and insights in every single chapter. --Geoff Thomas Pastor, Aberystwyth Baptist Church, Aberystwyth, Wales
Can 2000 years of church history be recorded within the compass of200 pages? Dr Campbell has demonstrated that it can!The book reflects the author's knowledge and ability to deal with amuch neglected subject in a gripping way. It will whet the appetiteof the uninformed and instruct those who have a love of church history. --Evangelical Times
