Church History (Laux)
Fr. John Laux's readable text on Church history is a classic for high school students and adults.
Church History succinctly but thoroughly covers 2,000-plus years of balanced and relevant history, including our Lord's life and ministry, the birth of the Catholic Church, Roman persecutions, martyrs, saints, Church councils, heresies, schisms, Crusades, the Hundred Years War, Protestantism, the Reformation, the Enlightenment, the French Revolution, the Oxford Movement, Vatican I, and more.
Church History by Fr. Laux is a story of the Church unparalleled in its scope, depth, variety, interest and impact. It is a book every Catholic should read, that people might understand in what manner the "mustard seed" of the Faith has grown to be the greatest institution in the entire world. No one can be a knowledgeable Catholic-or even a knowledgeable person-without knowing her story and how she has steadily advanced, overcoming all obstacles and all enemies in her quest to convert the world to Jesus Christ.
