Author James C. Schaap presents a compelling history in this narrative that weaves a rich tapestry of insights into the past, present, and future of the CRC. This hardcover book makes a great gift for family or friends and for those who are new to the CRC.
A wonderful piece of storytelling that comes out of a sincere love for the church. Somewhat bound by its time (written shortly after the URC split, something which is clearly on the author's—and church's—mind), and glosses over some of the darker points of the CRC's history. Overall, a wonderful historical retelling of the story that doesn't take itself too seriously and sheds considerable light on a complex history.
