This course covers the history of the Christian church from its inception in the first century to 1900. This year, the course will cover the end of the Reformation through to the modern church. Understanding the growth of the Christian church is key to understanding the history of Europe, the Americas and the Middle East. The course will cover the main issues, the important leaders such as Popes and governments, and the controversies and schisms that seemed to occur every few years.
