You will encounter churches, movements, and individuals and consider how successfully Christians and their communities fulfilled their callings as followers of Jesus. In addition to basic texts, you will read some interesting primary sources, write responses to specific questions, and give special consideration to the place of the Brethren in Christ on the North American Christian landscape.
