Product Description

Since its founding in 1865, The Salvation Army has grown from a small London movement, to an internationally renowned organization, virtually synonymous with charity. In this volume, General Henry Gariepy documents that growth, exploring the thrilling history of the worldwide movement, and the incredible things God has accomplished through it. Gariepys work serves as a reminder of the power Scripture has, when applied to change the world- of Christianity, in action.

This review is from: Christianity in Action: The International History of The Salvation Army (Hardcover)

This book gave me a good overview of the entire history of the Salvation Army without bogging down with details; there are details aplenty but not to many. It was pleasant to read and has suggestions for further reading if you so desire. I came away with a better understanding of the Salvation Army, its history and mission.
