Reviews
Review by: B.V. Henry, Author of "Forsaking All for Christ" - April 8, 2008
“It is very good to have a material so concise and attractive, easy to handle as folders. Congratulations! I hope that you found a wide audience worldwide to spread this knowledge--- it is worth the effort.” …“amazed by its quality and content. Whereas so much Christian literature is pure entertainment, here we have something didactic presented in an attractive way, rich in spiritual substance.”

I've spent part of 2 days studying and underlining your pamphlet. Thank you for doing such an excellent job in researching so many centuries of church and biblical history. It is wonderfully done!
Review by: Paul Dare - December 14, 2009
Great fold out resource giving an excellent summary of the Protestant reformation. Especially helpful for finding facts, people and events quickly. Very useful if you have children. Take your time to get through a good Church history book, but this is a great quick reference when you need it.
