Through Fire and Water: An Overview of Mennonite History (Revised)
Harry Loewen
Descripción
Through Fire and Water presents the Mennonite faith story within the sweep of church history. This engaging text uses stories of men and women, peasants and pastors, heroes and rascals, to trace the radical Reformation from sixteenth-century Europe to today's global Anabaptist family. Written in an accessible and nonacademic style, this revised edition updates the story and incorporates new historical research and discoveries.
"A superbly written introduction to Anabaptist-Mennonite history in contexts ranging from Kansas to Congo."
--Perry Bush, Bluffton University
"An accessible and engaging read for those who know little about Mennonites, and also for those who think they are familiar with this complex story of faith, culture, and action."
--Marlene Epp, Conrad Grebel University College
"Captivating personal stories, set alongside an honest portrayal of the Mennonite journey."
--Doug Heidebrecht, Centre for Mennonite Brethren Studies
