No institution has spanned more centuries and more continents than the Christian church. Its dramatic story is one of bloodshed and peace, corruption and purity. Here Dr. Hurlbut retells this story in an objective, concise, and clear style, emphasizing the spirit of the church, its growth and maturation, and the causes leading to historic events and their resulting influence. Accurate, up-to-date, and vividly presented, Hurlbut's Story of the Christian Church traces the six general periods of church history from A.D. 30 to the present day. A concluding section, covering the period since Dr. Hurlbut's death, has been added in this revised edition, thus giving the reader a complete, easily understood overview of the Christian church. Designed for two audiences, this book contains outlines and references in the margins to aid the student or teacher along with a continuous narrative and numerous illustrations for the general reader. It is ideal for Sunday school use, since it includes suggested outlines and review questions for each chapter at the end of the book.
Hurlbut's story of the Bible is designed as an introduction for young readers; it tells the principle stories of the Old and New Testament in a simple, understandable and engaging way.
The idea of telling the whole Bible in a manner that allows children to both enjoy and learn its contents was appealing to Hurlbut, who noted the Bible's enduring popularity. As a Methodist minister, Hurlbut had much experience with scripture, and felt that he could interpret the Biblical passages in a new way, that the younger generation can find introduction to the Bible in a manner that is spiritually sound and designed to hold their attention.
From the creation of the Earth, to Adam and Eve, to the Great Flood, to Moses' exodus from Egypt, we find the Bible's principle stories here. The greatness of King David, the story of Job, and the wealth of King Solomon are told, as is the life of Jesus Christ and the various parables he told to His followers. From the very beginning to the very end, the stories of the Bible are presented in a well-written and carefully crafted manner for the audience.
This edition of Hurlbut's stories unites all seven parts, that the reader may use a single volume to explore and learn all about the Bible's lessons and tales.
