2000 Years of Christ's Power volume 1

The author specifically says this history of the Church was written for "ordinary Christians,"  This, the first of four volumes,  covers the period from the 1st Century AD to the start of the Middle Ages [6th Century]. From the works of Augustine of Hippo to the first apologetic ever penned, the foundations of what we take for granted today were established during this time in history. The author is careful to explain terms and uses simple charts and maps to supplement his writings that the reader will find helpful.
