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.

Review
Revisado: 05-26-12
What made the experience of listening to A People's History of Christianity the most enjoyable?
The well-written and well-researched text.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Anne Askew
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Karen Saltus?
Anyone who understood basic pronunciation of religious terminology and important religious figures. Some basic words, like "theologian" were consistently mispronounced.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
a bit too long for that, but I returned to it over a few days to finish.
Any additional comments?
To honor the scholarship of the text and to maintain credibility, the pronunciation of the reader/performer needs to be monitored. She has a beautiful voice, clearly talented, but needs help with pronunciation of religious terminology.
