Mark A. Noll
In this popular introduction to church history, now in its third edition, Mark Noll isolates key events that provide a framework for understanding the history of Christianity. The book presents Christianity as a worldwide phenomenon rather than just a Western experience.
Now organized around 14 key moments in church history, this well-received text provides contemporary Christians with a fuller understanding of God as he has revealed his purpose through the centuries. This new edition includes a new preface; updates throughout the book; and two new chapters, including one spotlighting Vatican II and Lausanne as turning points of the recent past. Students in academic settings and church adult education contexts will benefit from this one-semester survey of Christian history.

Narrator James Foster reads at a good pace, but his rendering is marred at times by bizarre pronunciations of names and theological terms. One example that drove me a little crazy was his pronunciation of the name of the German reformer Philip Melanchthon, whose adopted academic last name was a Greek translation of his birth patronymic Schwartzerdt (black earth). In this case the "ch" combination is a rendering of the Greek letter chi, and in German would have been a standard achlaut, as in "Bach." Foster pronounced it like the ch in "chosen." Foster should have been coached on pronunciation of historic names and theological terminology, or else done more research himself.
a good history marred by mispronunciations
