Dr. Rogers' premise in this book is that the changes the church has experienced over the past twenty centuries are rooted in the cultural changes and shifts in worldview that have occurred during that time. Church history in general is well-known, and it is not Rogers' purpose to produce another historical account or analysis. Instead, his goal is to highlight chronologically the changes that occurred and ask questions about how conservative Christians have reacted to those changes, especially as it relates to the American Restoration Movement, which, as David Harrell has pointed out, is the most significant religious movement native to America (1964:47). Rogers' question about whether or not the New Testament is always prescriptive rather than being at least some of the time merely descriptive, plus his observations about cultural changes, assumptions about interpretive methodologyy, the importance of unity, and the need for continuing reformation, are thought provoking and challenging. The Church Through The Ages will make you think.
