Church History Taught from a Solid Catholic Perspective

Presented by Steve Weidenkopf, this exciting 20-part DVD series takes you through the major people, places, and events that make up the history of the Catholic Church. See the glory of the Church founded by Christ and understand where you fit into this Epic story.  Catholic Church History is the story of western civilization. It is an epic drama filled with adventure, triumph, tragedy, saints and sinners. As inheritors of this great civilization we have an obligation to preserve and hand-on our heritage. To do this, we must first know it.

“This is Catholic history as it should be written, with Christ always at the center, and all the Popes features and listed, and the great saints and the doctors of the Church honored.“  Warren H. Carroll, Founder of Christendom College
