Church History II explores the development of the Christian Church from the time of the Reformation to the Modern Era. We will pay attention, through an examination of both primary and secondary materials, to the social, cultural, political and theological contexts in which the church grew. Beyond this, we will be attentive to the relevance of historical understanding for contemporary ministry. Lectures, reading, and posted discussion will constitute the major substance of our exploration.
