2000 Years of Christ’s Power : Volume 2 : The Middle Ages : 7th to 15th century
Outline: 2,000 Years of Christ's Power is a multiple volume series on the history of the church. Academically reliable, but written with an easy, even humorous style which makes it accessible to anybody with an interest, this work falls into a category all of its own. The Middle Ages were dubbed the 'Dark Ages" almost before they had begun to draw to a close. Ever since then, they have continually been viewed as a time of hardship and oppression, full of popes and crusades. In this second volume of 2,000 Years of Christ's Power, another side of the Middle Ages shines through in the working of Christ through figures such as Bernard of Clairvaux and John Wycliffe, who lived and struggled during this time period. This was far from a period of stagnation; rather it was the fire from which the Reformation was kindled.
