More About This Book

Overview

The first 1,500 years of Christianity's tumultuous history. The clash of culures. Armies marching. The rise and fall of kingdoms. One language supplanting another. Yet Glastonbury remained a place of serenity, prayer, and reconciliation.

As the legacy of faith passed from generation to generation, cach era of believers found refuge in Glastonbury. In its story you will experience the faith that gave Joseph of Arimathea and his family courage to claim new land for Christ. Relive the persecution of St. George and St. Patrick during their captivity under the Roman Empire. Ride along with King Arthur on his historic adventures and discover the spiritual fortitude that enabled him to become the greatest leader of his time. Witness the rekindling of Christianity with St. Augustine of Canterbury. Be inspired by the faith of the remnant in the midst of the Dark Ages. Watch the upheaval under the rule of Henry VIII that led to the Reformation. And as Christianity triumphs over the darkest moments of its history, you may even find your own spiritual roots.

    Courage to raise the standard of your own faith in perilous times.

    This book gave me a broad understanding of English history, including the legends and stories which are always spoken about when England is mentioned. This book brings everything to life and the details make you live the events and times it covers. This was an inspiring book and helps you to see the Christian vision for that country, a high and worthy vision.
