Produktbeschreibung
The history of Britain and Ireland cannot be understood apart from the Christian faith that has shaped their identity. Introduced when these nations were still in their infancy, Christianity provided the framework for their moral, cultural, and social development from the very beginning.

In this comprehensive and engaging overview, Gerald Bray traces the remarkable creativity and resilience of Christianity across the centuries. He shows how the faith has continually adapted to new challenges, presenting the gospel to successive generations in ever-changing contexts. Christianity in Britain and Ireland has remained both a distinctive expression of the universal church and a dynamic influence on the global spread of the faith.

While historians often focus on the separate stories of England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, Bray offers a rare synthesis that weaves them together into a single narrative. He demonstrates that no nation's story can be fully understood without the others, situating each within a shared Christian heritage.



Accessible yet deeply informed, The History of Christianity in Britain and Ireland draws on the best of current scholarship to serve as both a readable survey and a valuable reference for students of history and theology alike.
