If you have ever wished for a short book highlighting church history's most important events that will enlighten your mind and pique your interest, this is the one you've been waiting for.

Great and Helpful!

They did a wonderful job of quick summaries of each century! I am thrilled to have listened!

Knowledge of the Church's History: Essential

A brief summary of 2,000 years is nearly impossible. Dr. Ferguson provides the best synopsis possible, in my opinion. In a day where, especially American, Christians are so detached from any knowledge of Christ's Faithfulness to His church, this book is an excellent place for leaders and laypeople alike to begin their understanding. The orator was fantastic. I couldn't stop listening. When the book had finished, I immediately played it again. I've studied this subject in depth, and even taught church history in my congregation. For those immersed in more exhaustive works on this subject, and for people looking for where to begin, this book is a must. Psalm 110.1. HE will have Dominion.

great overview

this is a great overview for novices such as myself. A perfect introductory work before diving deeper.

Informative

I gleaned much information from this book concerning how many men suffered and died to keep the Reformed churches true to God’s Holy scriptures. I believe the gates of Hell shall not prevail against the church. But, this book shows that the church has always had the enemy to contend with throughout every century.

Great crash course on Christian history.

Although it is highly influenced by reformed theology, it is a great quick run through of church history. I highly recommend.
