A Survey of Church History, Parts 1-6

Many Christians know little about the history of the church. As a result, they’re missing a testament to God’s steadfastness over the centuries. In this monumental study series, Dr. W. Robert Godfrey sheds crucial light on church history, demonstrating God’s promise to build and preserve His church so that “the gates of hell will not prevail against it” (Matt. 16:18). Across seventy-three messages, learn why having a working knowledge of church history remains relevant for our personal lives today, and for the church as a whole.
