2000 Years of Christ’s Power volume 4

Description

Turning the world upside down is a messy business.

Universal uncertainty was the aftermath of the Reformation. The Renaissance and Reformation were exciting times of learning and discovery – they pushed the boundaries of accepted thought. The centuries–old status quo had been turned on its head. Nothing was stable anymore. Conflict ensued.

This next instalment of 2,000 Years of Christ’s Power spans from the 16th to the 18th century, Needham documents the birth and coming of age of English Protestantism, Scottish Presbyterianism, and French Catholicism. Perhaps few eras have had such a direct impact on the characteristics of our own period of history.
