Pages from Church History by Stephen Nichols and published by P & R Books.
This book is journey through church history and it makes the subject come alive by presenting engaging portraits of 12 major figures - Polycarp, Augustine, Anselm, Aquinas, a Kempis, Luther, Calvin, Bunyan, Edwards, the Wesleys, Carey, and Bonhoeffer - whose lives, writings and theologies still have a formative influence on the Christian faith today.
Timothy Larsen writes "This is an ideal way to explore Church history and Nichols unfolds the story of Christian faith in a readable and clear manner with models of the best Christian spirituality and theology thrown in as a bonus."
