Radical Faith: An Alternative History of the Christian Church

John Driver has written a history that is an alternative both to traditional accounts and to sectarian interpretations. Radical Faith outlines the story of Christian people whose radical faith and commitment relegated them to the margins of a powerful church. Recovering the story of God’s people in this unique way provides readers with a valuable new perspective on Christian history.

Eighteen different groups and movements are represented, from the first century up to the 20th. Teachers and students of church history will appreciate the combination of clear organization, lucid prose, and numerous sidebar citations from primary sources.
