A History of the Christian Tradition: From Its Jewish Origins to the Reformation
Overview
A History of the Christian Tradition is a comprehensive overview of the institutional history and the theological issues involved in the development of Christianity from its roots in the Jewish religion through the sixteenth century Reformation. In 25 chapters the authors survey the principal movements that shaped and nurtured Christian consciousness. They show how the first, small communities developed into an institutional Church, and they trace the changing face of the Church through the first centuries and the Middle Ages. But Thomas McGonigle and James F. Quigley also show how Christian faith emerged, grew and changed over the same period. They evaluate the impact of the great Christian teachers—Jesus and Paul, Augustine, Benedict, Thomas Aquinas, and Luther.
