Christian History by Alister E Mcgrath

Written by one of the world's leading theologians and a bestselling author, this book provides a truly global review by exploring the development of Christianity and related issues in Asia, Latin America, and Africa.

“As a work giving an introductory overview of historical theology and lived Christianity in a wider social and intellectual context, the work is excellent —useful for introductory orientation to specific topics (with a meticulously subdivided table of contents and subheads throughout)—and helpful for seeing longer through-lines and deeper continuities than one would see in more narrowly focused works”  (Journal of Religious History, 6 December 2015)

“This book, ideal for seminarians but also for the non-professional Christian, is an incredible resource for helping Christians understand where our faith comes from, how it has developed and spread and survived as long as it has. Ultimately, this book is a great picture of the story of God working to advance his kingdom in the midst of broken humanity."   (Tom-farr.blogspot.com, 1 August 2013)
