Overview

Christianity is a global faith, extending far beyond Europe and North America, permeating the Eastern and Southern hemispheres.

A vast untold story waits to be heard beyond the familiar tale of how the Christian faith spread across Europe. Not only was Jesus born in Asia, but in the early years of the church Christianity found fertile soil in Africa and soon extended to East Asia as well.

In this introduction to world Christian history, Derek Cooper explores the development of Christianity across time and the continents.
