Noll. Downers Grove, Ill. : IVP Academic, ©2009. 1 online resource (212 pages) : illustrations, 1 map. text txt rdacontent unmediated n rdamedia volume nc rdacarrier In this book Mark Noll revisits the history of the American church in the context of world events. He makes the case that how Americans have come to practice the Christian faith is just as globally important as what the American church has done in the world. He backs up this claim, lucidly explaining the relationship between the development of Christianity in North America and the development of Christianity in the rest of the world, with attention to recent transfigurations in world Christianity.--From publisher description.
