Across five volumes, Luke H. Davis brings Church history to life through fascinating stories and memorable characters, from the early Christians and the struggles of the ancient Church through the Middle Ages and Reformation, the expansion of the Gospel around the world, and right up to the challenges and opportunities facing the Church today.

Written in an accessible, narrative style, the series helps young readers see not only what happened throughout history, but how God has continued to work through His people. Alongside the stories are maps, illustrations and fact files that help bring each period to life. Risen Hope is an excellent introduction to Church history for young teenagers, encouraging them to understand where the Church has come from, appreciate the faithfulness of those who have gone before them, and consider where the story might go next.
