5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book on Church History, May 17, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Exploring Church History (Paperback)

Would recomend to anybody who would like a quick tour of Church History, who does not have the time to read Phillip Schaffs 8 Volume Set. Eckman presents the facts of Church History without adding his own theological bias. The study questions at the end of each chapter also helped to solidify what was in each chapter. Praise the Lord!
