However, I do agree with her that while there were obviously horrible events that occurred, there were also good things that came from this time. The section on the Crusades is painted in a more positive light than most of us likely recall. Some might feel she didn’t include enough diversity among the people mentioned, but I do believe she did a very good job in her selection, especially since this is only an overview and not an exhaustive resource. Obviously, the author couldn’t include everything and this is most apparent in the church history book. These books are incredible resources for any Bible reading family or one that places value on learning church history. Reading Age: 6-12 (However, it’s probably best suited for children 8+, including high school and beyond!) The author calls out the Roman Catholic and Christian Science faiths for false/heretical teachings. Both books also have a large, fold-out “Heros and Villians” timeline. There are many illustrations and pictures as well as symbol guides included to help you understand the main points of history, quickly.

The Church History book is separated into five sections: Early Church, Medieval Church, Reforming Church, Missionary Church, and Modern Church.Įach book has timeline pages showing the progression of time through the Bible or church history as well as information pages throughout, expanding on certain people or events. The Bible history book is separated into six sections: Creation to the Promise Land, Living in the Promised Land, From One Kingdom to Two, Exile and Return, The Messiah, and The Early Church. Each of these books gives a well-plotted timeline of events either from Biblical history or Church History.
