Why it works

Nobody is asked for a date, only which came first, so a newcomer and a lifelong member start level. Every year was checked against at least two published sources. The subject is dated church history (Bibles in English, hymns, Sunday school, missions), not doctrine. US edition.

Made for: Church groups, women’s ministry, Bible study and senior ministry, of any denomination.
