Perspectives from Church History – The title has changed, but the content remains the same. Written as a basic introduction to the subject, this course covers the major periods of church history: The Ancient Church, The Medieval Church, The Reformation Church, and The Modern Church. It is designed to give Christians an overview of their spiritual heritage.

As the title implies, a study of church history provides a sense of perspective. It is both comforting and challenging to discover that many current issues are not new ones at all.
