Heroes of Church History: A Biographical Survey
This course surveys 20 centuries of Christian history (354 AD to 1984) by singling out eleven key people who stand out as they were chosen by God to make significant positive contributions to what the church has become today. We will study the lives of Saint Augustine, Albrecht Durer, John Bunyan, George Whitfield, J.S. Bach, David Livingston, Martyn Lloyd-Jones, C.S. Lewis, J. Gresham Machen, Eric Liddell, and Francis Schaeffer. They come from different countries and eras, including authors, artists, athletes, musicians preachers, missionaries, and professors. Their lives can equip and inspire us as we respond to God’s call today.
