Church History Lectures (David Guzik)

David Guzik gives 20 lectures on church history going from the Apostolic period right through the reformation in some detail then the last 4 lectures cover the period after that. He did a second series covering roughly the same material that you can see below this one.

Lectures on Christian History
By David Guzik

One of Pastor David Guzik's interests is the history of Christianity. It often isn't a pretty picture, but there is much to be learned from seeing how God worked and man responded through the history of the church.

This first series was presented at a special week-long seminar in Austria, in May 2007. I don't know if it is better or worse than my previous series (the Whiteboard talks found below).

Whiteboard Talks on Church History
By David Guzik

These messages were recorded at informal "Whiteboard Talks"
so the recording quality isn't the best - but we think it's good enough to be of use to many. The Document Links provide
some quotations from ancient writings cited in some of the earlier messages in the series.
