An excellent historical introduction,
By A Customer
This review is from: Christian Confessions (Paperback)
This book is an incredible resource for both clergy and laity alike. Ted Campbell does an outstanding job in tackling a complex subject. This book portrays each of the major branches of the Christian Church fairly and evenly. The cross-references in the book serve as a wonderful guide to studying each branch of Christianity seperately, or studying the differences and similarlities of each. This is a book that is difficult to put down once its been picked up.
