from a teacher's standpoint

I have used this book to teach one class of adults and will be using it in a few months to teach another class. They really enjoyed it. It is not overwhelming and yet hits most of the highlights of our "family" history. The conversational style keeps it from being boring and it is on a level that one does not have to have a college degree to understand. As with any study, it is always a good thing to undergird, support, and illustrate with other resources. If this is done, it balances any weaknesses found in the book's material. For instance, if a central character is not covered in depth enough, or even not at all, just add material to round it out. Our church is using it now for both teens and adults. Would recommend it to anyone.

Excellent for Teaching

I've scanned Christian History Made Easy by Timothy Paul Jones. Because it provides quizes, leader's guides, and refers to additonal information at web sites, the book can easily be used for courses in Christian History. Jones includes many pictures, and Did you know? articles on the borders of each page. The book content and format makes you want to read it. It's hard to put down!

You Need This One

I've found Timothy Jones' book both compact and well presented. There are no historical stones unturned. His use of references to web sites that help to broaden the reading experience is excellent and worth the book alone. The presentation is a balanced presentation and one that will appeal both to the professional reader and the novice alike. This book is a treasure.

A Treasure

Timothy Jones' Christian History Made Easy not only handles a broad and difficult topic well but does it with a deepening interest. The book is easy to read and the treatment extremely even handed. The internet links alone make this book a must read for those who wish to get a broader and clearer view of vital historical material. The book is simply a treasure!

I recommend it enthusiastically!

Church history is not about names, dates, and facts. It is about the flesh and blood people of God and the life and death issues that have shaped their struggles and joys for 2,000 years. *Christian History Made Easy* makes this story come alive. I recommend it enthusiastically!
