I found it!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Nelsons Dictionary of Christianity: The Authoritative Resource on the Christian World (Hardcover)
After looking through several of the standard dictionaries - both unabridged and abridged - there were words that I needed to define, but couldn't. I turned to some internet sources but still could not find definitions for these words. Finally! I found the definitions in this dictionary! Praises!

Quirks,
By Objective - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
While this ebook received generally positive reviews, I need to point out several defects.1. Reviewing facts I know, D. James Kennedy, the former, now deceased pastor of Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church is referenced as "James D. Kennedy of Coral Ridge Baptist Church." Location 45640 If there is this blatant error, how many more are there? 2. Several appendix entries are organized in an unhelpful manner. For example, instead of being in a helpful chronological order, the 100 Most Important Events in Christian History in Appendix 15 are in some sort of undefined random order. 3. Several of the tables are illegible on the DX. They cannot be sufficiently expanded and the type appears washed out - little contrast. 4. Unfortunately this "New" edition is 9 years old and only one other similar dictionary is offered for Kindle, this probably being the more complete of the two. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful

Traditionally Christian? Really,
By PN - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
After throughly reviewing this publication, I find it is not in the least written from a traditional Christian viewpoint. Just to list one glaring error, it has listed in the top 100 Christian names in history several skeptics. Guess the authors did not even look up their own definition of skeptic! Save your money. Wish I had. You will not get a proper perspective of Classical Christianity as presented in the Bible from this publication.
