One of our foremost historians of religion here chronicles the arrival of Christianity in the New World; tracing the turning points in the development of the immigrant church that have led to today's distinctly American faith.Taking a unique approach to this fascinating subject; Noll focuses on what was new about organized Christian religion on the American continent by comparison with European Christianity. In doing so; Noll provides a broad outline of the major events in the history of the Christian churches that have filled North America with such remarkable vitality and diversity. He also highlights some of the most important interpretive issues in the transfer of the hereditary religion of Europe to America.

Flusser writes!!1 of 2 people found the following review helpful. ExcellentBy Adrian A. BernalFlusser; does a great job. This work is well worth it; and although Flusser is a scholar he writes (in conjunction with the translators) so that all can read it and obtain the knowledge that Flusser intends for the reader. This book is excellent for scholars; students; and lay persons wanting to know more about the Second Temple Period.0 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Good but massively overprisedBy Justin Dean WhitlowIt's a good book but $30 for something that is just over 400 pages? That's what I call ripping off the academic community.
