Teaching Series Description:

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. This entire set consists of
   Part 1 AD 100-600
   Part 2 AD 500-1500
   Part 3 AD 1500-1620
   Part 4 AD 1600-1800
   Part 5 AD 1800-1900
   Part 6 AD 1900-2000.

This teaching series is Part 1 of the "A Survey of Church History" study series.

This study will examine the first 500 years of the church in order to illuminate the impact of the early church so that the church today might know itself and its God better. This particular study lays the historical context for the most dynamic moment in the history of the church and the world: the incarnation of the Son of God.

This Study Guide accompanies the DVD messages and is designed to take your study further to help you engage with the teaching on your own or with a group.
