Reformation As Renewal
$59.99See the Reformation with Fresh Eyes as You Explore Its Historical and Intellectual Origins
The Reformation as Renewal: Retrieving the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church is a fresh, holistic, and eye-opening introduction to one of the most significant turning points in the history of the Christian church. Taking into consideration both the historical and intellectual origins of sixteenth century reform, Matthew Barrett demonstrates that the Reformation was at its core a renewal of evangelical catholicity. Rome charged the Reformers with novelty, as if they were heretics departing from the catholic (universal) Church. But the reformers believed they were more catholic than Rome. Distinguishing themselves from Radicals, the Reformers were convinced they were retrieving the faith of their fathers, both patristic and medieval. Rather than breaking with the Church, the reformers saw themselves as faithful stewards of the one, holy, catholic, and apostolic church preserved across history. While Rome depended on innovations that originated in the late medieval era, the Reformers linked arms with the church across all ages, patristic and medieval, to restore true worship and gospel renewal in their own day.
By listening to the Reformers’ own voices, The Reformation as Renewal helps readers explore:
*The Reformation’s roots in patristic and medieval thought and its response to late medieval innovations
*The Reformation’s response to the charge of novelty by an appeal to evangelical catholicity
Common caricatures of the Reformation that mistake the Reformers as Radicals and Revolutionaries*The ecclesiastical and theological milieu of the sixteenth century that motivated Martin Luther’s response in Wittenberg.
*The spread of the Reformation across Europe, as seen in first and second-generation leaders from Zwingli and Bullinger in Zurich to Bucer and Calvin in Strasbourg and Geneva to Tyndale and Cranmer in England, and many others
*The theology of the Reformers, with special attention to their confessions, catechisms, and church liturgies
This balanced, insightful, and accessible treatment of the Reformation will help readers see this watershed moment in the history of Christianity with fresh eyes and appreciate the unity they have with the church across time. Over against common caricatures today, readers will discover that the Reformation was not the invention of something new, but the renewal of something very old: the grace and g

Brief Walk Through Christian History
$16.99How Christianity Grew from a Dozen Disciples to a Worldwide Movement
At the beginning of the first century, a teacher named Jesus of Nazareth shook Roman-occupied Israel with his preaching and teaching. When, several years later, the Romans crucified Jesus and sealed him in a tomb, his disciples were crushed and confused.
Two thousand years later, more than two billion followers of Jesus can be found around the globe. Justin Gatlin tells the story of how that happened–from the miraculous resurrection of Jesus to the spread of Christianity throughout Africa and Asia in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. For each era covered in A Brief Walk through Christian History, Justin shows how Christians from that time period:
*responded to Christ’s call to spread the gospel message,
*described and defined what it means to be a follower of Christ
*taught and discipled people who joined the church.It is an amazing story–one in which you can see the hand of God in the growth and expansion of the church.
