This timeline comprises one thousand significant dates for global Christianity. It includes events across all inhabited continents (and also in Antarctica and outer space), emphasizing those occurring in the non-Western world. The detailed annotations on each date are intended as provocative ""ignition points"" to spark historical curiosity, functioning as ""launchpads"" into further exploration in global Christianity. For example:
-739: What did the finding of the Rotas-Sator palindrome on the walls of an eighth-century Sudanese cave dwelling indicate?
-1346: Who were the mysterious Christians in the Javanese Royal Court of Majapahit?
-1969: Why was the ""secret communion"" on the Moon hushed up by NASA?
-1992: Why was Paraguay the only Latin American country to include an indigenous language as a national language?
Since previous histories of Christianity usually have a European or North American perspective, students will find this book useful for its global coverage. It can be used in three ways. Firstly, it can be used chronologically as a continuous global timeline. It can also be used as a sampling of Christianity in each country, or as an index of significant figures in the history of global Christianity. Each section is cross-referenced to the timeline, making it a valuable resource for historical study.
