The key figures, events and ideas of Christian history, discussed within their own context.
Addresses the most pressing question in the study of religion today: are new forms of spirituality overtaking traditional forms of religion? This book provides a theoretical perspective which explains both secularization and sacralization. It offers some predictions about the future of religion and spirituality in the west.
This is a short, accessible analysis of Christianity that focuses on its social and cultural diversity as well as its historical dimensions.
