For too long, the history of Christianity has been told as the triumph of orthodox doctrine imposed through power and hierarchy. In A People's History of Christianity, historian and religion expert Diana Butler Bass reveals an alternate history that includes a deep social ethic and far-reaching inclusivity: "the other side of the story" is not a modern phenomenon, but has always been practiced within the church. Butler Bass persuasively argues that corrective - even subversive - beliefs and practices have always been hallmarks of Christianity and are necessary to nourish communities of faith.

The narrator sounds like a robot

I've never been so disappointed in a book

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
The chapter breakouts were very interesting. For example, I was so excited to listen to the early Christian history, 0-500 AD. However, the narrative skipped all over the place and didn't pay any attention to telling a good story. I am a Howard Zinn fan, and this book has no relationship to his work, despite the title.
