Reflections on Twenty Centuries of Church History
The story of the church is important for Christians to know, for it contains rich and uplifting stories of God‘s dealings with His people. Dr. Sinclair B. Ferguson takes the reader on a tour of the Christian history, featuring stories and songs to give believers a sense of their place in God‘s kingdom and to encourage them in their walk.

“Church history as it should always be written—theologically grounded and pastorally applied. A marvelous read.”
—Dr. Derek W.H. Thomas
“Whether you are being introduced to a new restaurant or returning to your favorite cuisine, few things are as delightful as a sampler plate prepared by a master chef to give a taste of various delicacies. Such is this book. Sinclair Ferguson, a wise teacher of Christian theology and history, has given us a chef’s tour of the Lord’s sweet mercies across the last two thousand years. This is no bland synopsis. Ferguson’s clear summaries of each century are festooned with juicy morsels taken from classic Christian writings and savory biographical stories. This little book will be a blessing to earnest Christians and a boon to those who would provide future generations with deeper roots in our rich Christian heritage.”
