The Story of the Church:
8 Bible-Based Lessons on God’s Sovereignty & Providence in Church History
by Kerry van der Vinne
Upon the rock of faith in Jesus Christ, the Church was founded. Through 2000+ years it has seen triumphs and failures, but it has never been beyond the reach of God’s redemptive grace.
In eight powerful sessions, Kerry van der Vinne provides an overview of Christian history, touching on the stories of many great saints (including Polycarp, Athanasius, and Francis of Assisi), taking stock of pivotal controversies, and exploring both triumphs and failures – all of which have astonishing relevance to us today. Each lesson is rooted in scripture and includes questions for discussion or reflection. Suitable for either personal or group learning, this study is presented at an academic level suitable for adults or mature teens.
