Sintesi dell'editore

Christianity arose within the social and spiritual dislocation of the Roman Empire. Jesus, perceived by authorities as a threat to public stability, was executed in about 30 CE; his crucifixion and belief in his resurrection became a defining symbol for world-wide Christian religion.

The fall of Rome led to a divided Roman Empire and eventually a divided church. Though Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches share virtually the same canon of scriptures, they have diverged through the centuries as each embraced different ideas about worship, ethics, and relations to politics and culture.

The Religion, Scriptures, and Spirituality series describes the beliefs, religious practices, and the spiritual and moral commitments of the world's great religious traditions. It also describes a religion's way of understanding scripture, identifies its outstanding thinkers, and discusses its attitude and relationship to society.

More on Catholicism than Orthodoxy

It's more of a overview on Christianity itself than on Catholicism and Orthodoxy. I was hoping for more info on the history of the two than just an overview

Don't bother

Having multiple voices is helpful to understand who is speaking. But the author used material which neither the Catholic or Orthodox churches would agree. Therefore, look elsewhere for reliable information.

Just Terrible

I was hoping to really like this book, however I was greatly disappointed, and upset. First of all there are more than a few factual errors in it. Security the narration, if you can call it that, was so over the top and annoyingly dramatic it was difficult to listen to.

Drama? Seriously?

I could not listen. This is a serious subject turned into a sentimental dramatic reading. Not my thing.

A specific history read masterfully. Thank you to the author, voice actors, and publisher.

Superb Narration

Really enjoyed Ben Kingsley and crew's performance of this book. History can sometimes make for dry listening but here I was fully engaged. Content was extremely informative and I feel covered all sides of the story fairly. Ending with the hope for good relations and reconciliation between the two Churches. Amen!

Interesting primer but not a complete picture.

Some really interesting information showing the journey of Catholic Christianity through the early ages of the Roman Empire and the middle ages up to the schism and the split of the reformation.
Needed more to bring us up to the 21st century

Concise.

Concise and pretty good packing in of 2000 years of history into just over 2 hours.
