Summary: Offers a history of Christianity ranging back to the origins of the Hebrew Bible and covering the world, following the three main strands of the Christian faith, to teach modern readers how Jesus' message spread and how the New Testament was formed. MacCulloch follows the Christian story to all corners of the globe, filling in often neglected accounts of conversions and confrontations in Africa and Asia. He explores the roots of the faith that galvanized America, charting the rise of the evangelical movement from its origins in Germany and England. MacCulloch introduces the monks and crusaders, heretics and saints, slave traders and abolitionists, and he discovers Christianity's essential role in driving the Enlightenment and the Age of Exploration, and shaping the course of World Wars I and II.
