Editorial Reviews
Review
These stories may come up from the basement of church history, but news about their existence deserves to be shouted from the housetops...This new series turns history upside down... --Mattin E. Marty, University of Chicago Divinity School
Hidden for centuries by their anonymity and illiteracy, the people of God are finally having their story told, and by some of today's finest historians of the church. The saints, bishops, and theologians of traditional histories can now be placed against the panoramic and fascinating backdrop of the lived religion of ordinary men and women of faith. Highly recommended. --Mark U. Edwards Jr., Harvard Divinity School

A good read and excellent study of the events leading to the continued disorganization of the Christian church. It is yet mind-boggling the overload of views which ostentially are said to be of the same doctrine.
