Christ Education Resources: Spring & Summer 2015

A People’s History of Christianity: The Other Side of the Story

TAUGHT BY: THE REV. JIMMY GRACE

For too long, the history of Christianity has been told as the triumph of orthodox doctrine imposed through power. Church historian Diana Butler Bass sheds new light on the surprising ways that many Christians have refused to conform to a rigid church hierarchy and sought to recapture the radical implications of Jesus’ life and message.
