Description

A history of the church from its establishment in the first century, through the apostasy, the reformation and the restoration of New Testament Christianity in the 20th century.

Written by Mattox, a former professor of church history at Harding College and former president of Lubbock Christian College, this book addresses the need for a general history of the church to help the reader understand undenominational Christianity.

A good resource for any Bible student.
