Book Reviews of The Church in History

Book Review: biased and out of date
Summary: 1 Stars

I previewed this book, thinking it might be useful for a Church History course. I found it to be very biased, with a very narrow view, and also quite out of date. For example, the author refers to monks and nuns as being misled in their call to a life of celibacy - the author does not recognize that such a call might be genuine. The book has not been updated since the fall of the Berlin Wall - the Wartburg is referred to as being the home of some communist official, when in fact it has been part of the reunited Germany and open as a museum for many years now.
I used another book for the course.

Summary of The Church in History
