This book outlines the thrilling story of the onward march of the Church of Christ from the earliest times to the end of the nineteenth century. It is not a dry-as-dust account of long-forgotten events and controversies, but rather a moving record of those who undertook the adventure of faith before us and. through their courage and steadfastness, left an example for the church in every age. Reading of the exploits of those who have gone before us, through times of prosperity and times of persecution, should stimulate, warn and encourage the church in our own age to persevere in the same path, and obtain the same everlasting reward.

Since its first appearance in 1980, Sketches from Church History by S. M. Houghton has been a firm favourite with those seeking an overview of the onward march of the church of Christ from its earliest days to the end of the nineteenth century. Here at last , said one reviewer, is a book which makes church history enjoyable. More recently Sketches has become established as a textbook in Christian schools and among home-schooling families, and one list of favourite home-school books on Amazon.com placed it third overall in general usefulness. Now teachers and home-schoolers have a new tool to make Sketches even more useful: a Workbook on Sketches from Church History by Rebecca Frawley. Complete with an 18-week course syllabus, questions and answers, charts, time lines, maps, puzzles, and essay topics, this Workbook will be an invaluable companion to Sketches from Church History. It is spiral-bound for ease of use.

Here in modern English is the most famous of Baptist Confessions containing the heart and soul of the Reformation in terms of clear Biblical truth. Here is a Confession of faith for churches to be founded upon, a faith for church members to know, love, defend and propagate, a faith that church officers can hand on to future generations. The Introduction which forms a preface to this Confession explains its origin and discusses several particularly relevant issues contained in the chapters, thereby increasing the usefulness of the whole.
