Church HistorySteve Gregg
In a fascinating historical account, Steve Gregg shares 15 principal events of the Middle Ages. One such event was when the bishops of Rome became Popes and were positioned superior to bishops of churches throughout the world, despite resistance from some. The expansion and official doctrine of purgatory in the Catholic Church also circulated throughout the masses of people. Gregg goes on to discuss significant developments in the rise of Islam, Papal authority and the Holy Roman Empire, and the eventual Reformation.
