  history of the catholic church book: The Catholic Church Hans Kung, 2003-01-07 In this extraordinary book, the controversial and profoundly influential Hans Küng chronicles the Roman Catholic Church’s role as a world power throughout history. Along the way, he examines the great schisms—between East and West, and Catholic and Protestant—as well as the evolving role of the papacy, the stories of the great reforming popes, and the expansion of a global church infrastructure. The book concludes with a searching assessment of how the Catholic faith will confront the immense challenges posed in the new millennium by those seeking reform of traditional strictures.
  history of the catholic church book: A Concise History of the Catholic Church (Revised Edition) Thomas Bokenkotter, 2005-08-16 Expanded and updated for the new millennium. Covering the life of Christ, the election of Pope Benedict XVI, and everything in between, A Concise History of the Catholic Church has been one of the bestselling religious histories of the past two decades and a mainstay for scholars, students, and others looking for a definitive, accessible history of Catholicism. With a clarity that will appeal to any reader, Thomas Bokenkotter divides his study into five parts that correspond to the major historical and epochal developments in Catholicism. His authoritative, thorough approach takes readers from the Church’s triumph over paganism, through the sound and fury of renewal, to a new section devoted to such topics as dissent and current developments in the ecumenical movement. Informative illustrations throughout the book, new to this edition, enrich the reader's experience, and the addition of a wide-ranging bibliography increases its value as a sourcebook.

  history of the catholic church book: The History of the Church Guy Bedouelle, 2002 The aim of this book is as modest as it is ambitious. It sees itself both as a manual of the history of the church, and as an essay. The manual is of service to the students of theology and at the same time lays open to them the problems linked to the subject of their studies. The first and foremost aim of the book however is to offer an overall view of the 2000 years of the history of the Catholic Church and the other Christian denominations. It is the history of hights and failures, of incidents an devents as reactions to the different challanges to the faith and the church. It is the story of breakdowns leading to new starts, of conversions and continous building up, and this gives the story ist particular rhythm, against which the believer always tries to separate the wheat from the chaff, as a means to discover the finger of God, who writes in the sand of history. From that point of view the book is an essay in the true sense of the word.

  history of the catholic church book: New Short History of the Catholic Church Norman Tanner, 2011-04-21 ____________ 'A useful book of reference by the master of the history of the councils of the Church... There is enormous value in a short, reliable, and careful study of a sequence of events that may have unfamiliar joinings and passageways to modern believers...' - Catholic Historical Review 'A short, readable and informed survey of church history.' - The Church of England Newspaper 'A rich foundation for Catholic understanding and witness.' - Catholic San Francisco ____________ A one-volume history of the Christian people from Pentecost to the present day, with principal focus on the Catholic Church. Having passed AD 2000 it seems appropriate and necessary to have a new short history of the first two millennia of the Christian era. In the last half century there has been a massive amount of research into Church history, published in learned articles and in multi-volume works. Full notice is taken of these recent scholarly initiatives in writing this short account, which is also eminently readable. In each section there is a balance between the institutional and the more directly religious dimensions of the Church - here are some of the elements: bishops, canon law, charity, councils crusades, devotions, heresies, laity, liturgy, martyrs, missionaries, parishes, pilgrimages, popes, prayer, priesthood, religious orders, sacraments, schools, theologians, universities and the vita consacrata. The scope is wide; the pace of the narrative is attractive.

  history of the catholic church book: A History of the Catholic Church A. A. Lambing, 2015-07-19 Excerpt from A History of the Catholic Church: In the Dioceses of Pittsburg and Allegheny From Its Establishment to the Present Time It is my good fortune to be a descendant of one of the first Catholic families that penetrated the wilds to plant the faith in western Pennsylvania, and to have been early familiarized with accounts of the privations and sufferings to which both priests and people were subjected in those early days. From childhood these narrations possessed a charm which, while it made them interesting at the time, aided also in engraving them on the memory. Acquaintance with the history of the Church increased as time went on, and when I became associated with others in the publication of the Catholic Journal a few years ago, I ventured upon a few historical articles of a general character. Finding they proved interesting to many readers, they were continued. Different congregations and institutions in the diocese were then sketched in a series of articles, amounting in all to more than sixty, until the publication of the paper was suspended. Seeing that a large amount of historical data had been collected, and that the publication of the articles in the Journal had elicited further information and enabled me to correct erroneous statements; and having been at pains and expense in bringing the information together, I determined to recast whatever had been written, supply what was still wanting, and publish a history of the two dioceses. Information was then carefully sought from every available source, and such scraps of time as could be spared from the care of a large congregation and other duties were devoted to the work. But writing a consecutive history was found to be different from penning a newspaper article; and a work of this character especially is surrounded with more and greater difficulties than people are apt to imagine.
