Raising to the forefront the paramount issues and concerns during the period, Grant's expanded collection of primary documents brings the reader into the very arenas in which Christianity was being discussed and provides a firsthand encounter with what churches were facing as the movement spread.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Robert M.
