{"product_id":"30-events-that-shaped-the-alton-gansky-9780801016080","title":"30 Events That Shaped the Church: Learning from Scandal, Intrigue, War, and Revival","description":"The church of today did not appear on the earth fully formed but developed over the centuries through historical events that, while they may seem distant, have a direct effect on our everyday lives. Following Jesus's command to spread the gospel to the ends of the earth, the apostles and their spiritual descendants have grown the church through times of peace and times of war, through persecution and pilgrimage. The church that began as a rag-tag group of Middle Eastern fishermen, tax collectors, and zealots became the multi-ethnic, multifaceted church of today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow thirty of those course-altering events are brought to life by consummate storyteller Alton Gansky. Spanning twenty centuries of history, this lively book will entertain and educate readers who love history and who want to know why the church is the way it is today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alton Gansky\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0801016088\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780801016080\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Baker Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/20\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.10w x 0.90d","brand":"Alton Gansky","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059723661567,"sku":"9780801016080","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3b3cfca1-73d5-4e3a-9fde-c37a43e0e9a8.jpg?v=1685059948","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/30-events-that-shaped-the-alton-gansky-9780801016080","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
