Reclaiming the Dark Ages, How the Gospel Light Shone from 500 to 1500

If you study church history closely, you will see that there is a continuous thread of faithful, glorifying theology that gives God due honour, that takes Scripture as the principal authority over life and faith, and that nourishes our wonder and worship. Despite its somewhat derogatory name, we can see that the light of the gospel was by no means extinguished in the millennium between 500 and 1500. Iain Wright and Yannick Imbert outline the story of this time through the lives of ten key figures of the Medieval Church

‘Evangelicalism, at a popular level, often rejects the Middle Ages as a period of sheer darkness, hardly worth knowing. Iain Wright and Yannick Imbert demonstrate that the medieval period is very much worth knowing. I gladly commend this volume as helping us to see the brighter side of what is often looked on as the “dark ages”.’ Nick Needham, Lecturer in Church History, Highland Theological College, Dingwall, Scotland
