Concisely covering two millennia of Christian history and theology is no small task. Yet this book does an admirable job. Here you’ll find nearly all the highlights, as well as the main lowlights, and a few chuckles for good measure. Concise but clear, Lane helpfully unpacks and explains often complicated debates and issues. The writing is superb and I was able to read straight through most of the book, though it could also be selectively consulted as a reference work. I found Concise History particularly helpful when preparing for my ordination exam on church history. |
