Description
1600–1890
Missionaries get moving.
The Protestant Reformation had redrawn the map of the Christian world. Now the Church sought to take the hope of the Christian Gospel where it had not been before.
The nearly three centuries covered in this volume give us a picture of the incredible energy and great expansion of the Church throughout the world, and the people who led the way through a variety of abilities that God gave them:
The result was a Church that, by the end of this era, had expanded to lands previously unreached, bringing glory to the Lord who continued to guide His Church.
The Risen Hope series is a narrative–driven journey through the history of the Church. Introducing key people and events from the last two thousand years, readers will be captivated by the fascinating stories and engaging style. Continuing the legacy of its predecessor, the History Lives series, the Risen Hope series is a breath of fresh air on the church history scene. Book 4 of 5.
Endorsements
Davis has produced a volume that provides a helpful survey of missions since the reformation. Creating narratives that make the lives of gospel proclaimers come to life, the author makes the lives of the well known as well as the not so well known accessible to the reader.

In this volume, Luke Davis uses his biographical skills to take us on a journey through the 17th to the 19th centuries. Once again, as in his previous volumes, he brings his characters colourfully to life, and stimulates us to want to know more about their persons and their times, in those three epoch–making centuries of church history.
