The history of Christianity in the United States is a fascinating and lively story. Nancy Koester introduces students to the major events and movements that influenced the tradition. The third edition brings the story of American Church History up to date, with special emphasis on Christian nationalism. Previous chapters have been enhanced by new content and updated language where needed. Some fresh images, questions and callout boxes refresh the text while keeping its original strength and clarity.
This comprehensive and highly accessible overview of Christian history in the United States, from colonial times to the present, is informed by both classical and recent scholarship and is written for the nonspecialist. Four key insights frame the book: Christianity in America is chiefly a story of popular movements, is influenced by conflict and engagement with modern ideas, directly affects public life, and expresses its identity and seeks its mission in a pluralistic culture.
Unlike many histories, Koester offers ample coverage of Protestant, Evangelical, and Roman Catholic developments, and the ecumenical focus is further strengthened in this newest edition.
