The early twenty-first century could be characterized as a time of tremendous religious awareness, when both believers and non-believers are deeply engaged by questions of religion and tradition. This book ranges back to the origins of the Hebrew Bible and covers Christianity around the world, following the three main strands of the Christian faith, to teach modern readers how Jesus' message spread and how the New Testament was formed. The book follows the Christian story to different corners of the globe, filling in often neglected accounts of conversions and confrontations in Africa and Asia. The author also covers the roots of the faith that galvanized America and charts the rise of the evangelical movement from its origins in Germany and England. This book introduces the stories of monks and crusaders, heretics and saints, slave traders and abolitionists, and reveals Christianity's essential role in driving the Enlightenment and the Age of Exploration, and in shaping the course of World Wars I and II
