How do Christians live as citizens of a fallen world? Meet the believers who sought to live faithfully in the world without being consumed by it; sometimes by working hand-in-hand with the state; sometimes enduring its persecution. Discover how they did all these things as a way to follow Jesus—helping to bring Augustine’s “City of Man” just a little bit closer to the “City of God”—in this issue of Christian History.

This special 40th anniversary edition of Christian History takes the reader on a 100-page visual tour through two millennia of church history. Captivating images and concise summaries overview the main eras of the Church around the world. Don’t miss this unique and stunning celebration of our founder’s vision and of God’s work in ages past.

This set includes four issues of Christian History magazine — #33: Christianity and Civil War, #50: American Revolution, #138: America's Book (Part 1), #143: Bible in America (Part 2)
