Reader ReviewsThere are few history books that I have found to be as accurate and interesting as this one. Kuiper helps the reader look at history through the lens of the Bible, that God's Church is screwed up, and yet will prevail blameless at Christ's return. He does have a solid reformed perspective, that I respect and agree with. This book is at the 6th grading level. It's easy to understand and very interesting. He brings the saints stories to life. The maps and timelines are very helpful. If you are interested in having a greater understanding of the church today, you must understand where it came from. History is not dead and boring, yet alive, fascinating, and applicable to the Christian.
