S25-21 The History of Christianity - Part 2 NEW
Class | Registration opens 3/9/2025 9:00 AM EST
This course is the continuation of the first part, which was taught in the Winter session. It picks up where the Winter class left off – at the end of the Middle Ages and the Protestant Reformation in the 1500’s. It will continue on up to the present day. Some of the major topics that will be covered: the Protestant reformers (Luther, Calvin, etc.); the Catholic Counter-Reformation, the Eastern Orthodox from 1500-today, the missionary movement and the world-wide spread of Christianity, the incredible variety within Protestantism in the last 200 years (the Holiness movement, the Oxford movement, struggles over Biblical interpretation, liberal Protestant theology, Pentecostalism, Dispensationalism, Evangelicalism), Catholicism in the last 200 years – the most important popes and 2 important Councils; and much more.
