Download or read book The History of Christianity in Britain and Ireland written by Gerald Bray and published by Inter-Varsity Press. This book was released on 2021-06-17 with total page 821 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of Britain and Ireland is incomprehensible without an understanding of the Christian faith that has shaped it. Introduced when the nations of these islands were still in their infancy, Christianity has provided the framework for their development from the beginning. Gerald Bray's comprehensive overview demonstrates the remarkable creativity and resilience of Christianity in Britain and Ireland. Through the ages, it has adapted to the challenges of presenting the gospel of Christ to different generations in a variety of circumstances. As a result, it is at once a recognizable offshoot of the universal church and a world of its own. It has also profoundly affected the notable spread of Christianity worldwide in recent times. Although historians have done much to explain the details of how the church has evolved separately in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, a synthesis of the whole has rarely been attempted. Yet the story of one nation cannot be understood properly without involving the others; so, Gerald Bray sets individual narratives in an overarching framework. Accessible to a general readership, The History of Christianity in Britain and Ireland draws on current scholarship to serve as a reference work for students of both history and theology.

Download or read book The Christian Church in These Islands before the Coming of Augustine written by G. F. Browne and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-10-04 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: G. F. Browne's 'The Christian Church in These Islands before the Coming of Augustine' is a meticulous examination of the development of Christianity in the British Isles prior to the arrival of St. Augustine of Canterbury in 597 AD. Browne's scholarly approach delves into archaeological evidence, historical texts, and religious practices to paint a vivid picture of the early church in this region. The book features a blend of academic analysis and engaging narrative to bring to life the religious landscape of the pre-Augustinian era, offering readers a comprehensive understanding of the Christian communities that existed in these islands. Browne's writing style is clear and concise, making this work accessible to both scholars and general readers interested in the history of Christianity in Britain. As a distinguished historian of early Christianity, G. F. Browne's expertise and meticulous research shine through in 'The Christian Church in These Islands before the Coming of Augustine'. His deep knowledge of the subject matter and scholarly approach to the topic provide readers with a rich and insightful exploration of the early Christian church in the British Isles. Browne's passion for uncovering the roots of Christianity in this region is evident throughout the book, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the church in Britain prior to the medieval period. I highly recommend 'The Christian Church in These Islands before the Coming of Augustine' to history enthusiasts, religious scholars, and anyone interested in the early spread of Christianity in the British Isles. Browne's thorough research and engaging narrative offer a compelling insight into a lesser-known aspect of British history, shedding light on the foundations of the Christian faith in these islands.
Download or read book England Ireland Scotland Wales written by Keith Robbins and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2008-09-05 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Keith Robbins, building on his previous writing on the modern history of the interlocking but distinctive territories of the British Isles, takes a wide-ranging, innovative and challenging look at the twentieth-century history of the main bodies, at once national and universal, which have collectively constituted the Christian Church. The protracted search for elusive unity is emphasized. Particular beliefs, attitudes, policies and structures are located in their social and cultural contexts. Prominent individuals, clerical and lay, are scrutinized. Religion and politics intermingle, highlighting, for churches and states, fundamental questions of identity and allegiance, of public and private values, in a century of ideological conflict, violent confrontation (in Ireland), two world wars and protracted Cold War. The massive change experienced by the countries and people of the Isles since 1900 has encompassed shifting relationships between England, Ireland (and Northern Ireland), Scotland and Wales, the end of the British Empire, the emergence of a new Europe and, latterly, major immigration of adherents of Islam, Hinduism, Sikhism and other faiths from outside Europe: developments scarcely conceivable at the outset. Such a broad contextual perspective provides an essential background to understanding the puzzling ambiguities evident both in secularization and enduring Christian faith. Robbins provides a cogent and compelling overview of this turbulent century for the churches of the Isles.
Download or read book Anno Domini The Story of Christianity in the British Isles written by Frances Marrow and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written for the general reader with an interest in how Christianity spread and developed throughout the British Isles, Anno Domini: The Story of Christianity in the British Isles explores the progress of Christianity in all four countries. It also looks at how it contributed greatly to the formation of our culture in the process. The book explores the theme of Christianity thoroughly, but step-by-step, taking the reader through the early centuries where the Saints played major roles to spread the faith and inspire others, on to the arrival of St Augustine in the South and how the mission that followed led to the gradual ascendancy of the Church of Rome over the Celtic churches. It then takes the reader through the English Reformation, imparting facts and outlooks on the situation in an easy-to-understand way, exploring the religious dissent that followed for many centuries until society learned to live peaceably with religious differences. Finally we come to the twenty-first century, where traditional values have lapsed and secularisation has increased. And the story continues as Christians of every persuasion are challenged to respond to present issues. A clear, well-laid out and thoroughly researched book that explains the progress of Christianity with an enthusiasm that should infect its reader, Anno Domini will interest the mind and inspire the heart.

Download or read book If These Stones Could Talk written by Peter Stanford and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2021-10-14 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A heavenly book, elegant and thoughtful. Get one for yourself and one for the church-crawler in your life!' Lucy Worsley Christianity has been central to the lives of the people of Britain and Ireland for almost 2,000 years. It has given us laws, customs, traditions and our national character. From a persecuted minority in Roman Britannia through the 'golden age' of Anglo-Saxon monasticism, the devastating impact of the Vikings, the alliance of church and state after the Norman Conquest to the turmoil of the Reformation that saw the English monarch replace the Pope and the Puritan Commonwealth that replaced the king, it is a tangled, tumultuous story of faith and achievement, division and bloodshed. In If These Stones Could Talk Peter Stanford journeys through England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland to churches, abbeys, chapels and cathedrals, grand and humble, ruined and thriving, ancient and modern, to chronicle how a religion that began in the Middle East came to define our past and shape our present. In exploring the stories of these buildings that are still so much a part of the landscape, the details of their design, the treasured objects that are housed within them, the people who once stood in their pulpits and those who sat in their pews, he builds century by century the narrative of what Christianity has meant to the nations of the British Isles, how it is reflected in the relationship between rulers and ruled, and the sense it gives about who we are and how we live with each other. 'There is no better navigator through the space in which art, culture and spirituality meet than Peter Stanford' Cole Moreton, Independent on Sunday
