Kirchen und Konfessionen (Grundwissen Christentum)

In the light of the diversity of Christian denominations, it is vital to discover where any one church stands in the broad spectrum. This book introduces the reader to the main Christian denominations, particularly those present in Europe. Among them are the Lutheran Church, the Reformed churches, the Mennonites, the Anglican Church, Pentecostalism, evangelical groups, the Orthodox Church, and the Roman Catholic Church. Each denomination is portrayed by a member of the respective church or by an author who has an academic background on that particular denomination.
