This history of the Catholic church tells the story of the 2,000-year relationship between Jesus and the believers who have followed him. It is a story of people -- peasants and popes, saints and heretics, martyrs and apostates -- and how the faith has been passed down throughout the ages, generation to generation. The information is concise yet insightful, rendering a complete and accurate portrait of this centuries-old institution.

The Catholic Church is the longest-enduring institution in the world. Beginning with the first Christians and continuing in our present day, the Church has been planted in every nation on earth. The Catholic Church claims Jesus Christ himself as her founder, and in spite of heresy from within and hostility from without, she remains in the twenty-first century the steadfast guardian of belief in his life, death, and resurrection. The teachings and redemptive works of Jesus as told in the Gospels are expressed by the Church in a coherent and consistent body of doctrine, the likes of which cannot be found in any other Christian body. The history of the Catholic Church is long, complicated, and fascinating, and in this book it is expertly and ably told by historian James Hitchcock. As in the parable of Christ about the weeds that were sown in a field of wheat, evil and good have grown together in the Church from the start, as Hitchcock honestly records. He brings before us the many characters-some noble, some notorious-who have left an indelible mark on the Church, while never losing sight of the saints, who have given living testimony to the salvific power of Christ in every age. This ambitious work is comprehensive in its scope and in incisive in its understanding, a valuable addition to any school or home library.

In this extraordinary book, the controversial and profoundly influential Hans Küng chronicles the Roman Catholic Church’s role as a world power throughout history. Along the way, he examines the great schisms—between East and West, and Catholic and Protestant—as well as the evolving role of the papacy, the stories of the great reforming popes, and the expansion of a global church infrastructure. The book concludes with a searching assessment of how the Catholic faith will confront the immense challenges posed in the new millennium by those seeking reform of traditional strictures.

Did you know that the Catholic Church is the oldest institution to exist in the Western world? The Catholic Church has a history that spans over two thousand years, and it began with none other than Jesus Christ himself. At least, that is what modern popes believe. But at first, there was just one church, and there was no division between Catholics, Protestants, Eastern Orthodox, and other branches of Christianity. Christians all over the known world were united, and together, they made their spirituality bloom. Their religion took over the lives of villagers, nobles, kings, queens, and even newly-arrived pagan armies that came to conquer Europe. This book strives to give a simplified answer to the complex question of the Catholic Church's existence. It deals with the topics of the foundation of the church, its legitimacy, papal supremacy, authority, and the church's right to dominate the spiritual lives of people. But to answer these philosophical questions, we have to dive into the history of the Catholic Church and touch on topics such as the existence of Jesus Christ, the persecution of Christians, the development of monasteries, and the Catholic dominance over the church. The long existence of the Catholic Church makes it one of the most interesting institutions to observe through the lens of history. This book will attempt to treat Christianity and the Catholic Church objectively. The many successes and victories that the Roman Catholic Church achieved are recognized in the pages of this book, as well as its flaws, defeats, and scandals it caused. Continue reading Catholic History to find out: How Christ built the church on the rock that is Saint Peter Learn about Christianity during the age of Apostles How the first monasteries came to life Why Christians were persecuted through the ages How one emperor embraced the faith and legalized it The Great Schism that divided the Christians How the pope founded the Holy Roman Empire How emperors asserted their authority over the church Why Martin Luther revolted against the church Who started the reform of the church Who were the Jesuits, Jansenists, and Gallicans How the church survived the Age of Reason How the French Revolution influenced the papacy How liberal Catholics rose to power Why Pope Pius IX issued his famous Syllabus of Errors How the Catholic Church developed outside of Europe and traveled to the Americas What the role of the church is in the modern world and how the popes changed the conservative views of the medieval church into democratic and liberal ones Scroll up and click the "add to cart" button to learn more about catholic history!

Expanded and updated for the new millennium. Covering the life of Christ, the election of Pope Benedict XVI, and everything in between, A Concise History of the Catholic Church has been one of the bestselling religious histories of the past two decades and a mainstay for scholars, students, and others looking for a definitive, accessible history of Catholicism. With a clarity that will appeal to any reader, Thomas Bokenkotter divides his study into five parts that correspond to the major historical and epochal developments in Catholicism. His authoritative, thorough approach takes readers from the Church’s triumph over paganism, through "the sound and fury of renewal," to a new section devoted to such topics as dissent and current developments in the ecumenical movement. Informative illustrations throughout the book, new to this edition, enrich the reader's experience, and the addition of a wide-ranging bibliography increases its value as a sourcebook.
