Church History

 i found these two videos on Youtube that I thought others might be interested in. One is a video prepared by the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) to explain the Roman Catholic Church to other Christians. 

 

The second is a Video prepared by the United Church of Canada, that highlights important points in our history.

 

I invited others to post videos explaining other denominations, and other faiths or belief systems.

Made in 2006

The purpose of this video is to help Protestant Christians and others develop a better understanding of the Roman Catholic Church, its history and basic beliefs by listening to Roman Catholics tell their own story. 

The 35-minute program is organized into three parts: Roman Catholic beliefs, Church history, Catholic Renewal. The program includes interviews with Roman Catholic theologians, scholars, pastors and lay people. Portions of this program were recorded in Rome, Assisi, Trent and Casino, Italy.

The Roman Catholic Church is the largest block of Christianity. In the U.S. 65 million Roman Catholics are organized into 200 archdioceses and dioceses and more than 19,000 local Catholic parishes. Each year over one million infants and 70,000 adults are baptized in U.S. Roman Catholic churches. Yet for all its great size, influence and long history, many non-Roman Catholics understand very little about the largest Christian denomination.
