Test 1:
• Develop a comprehensive definition for Christianity. Do not merely say Christianity is a belief in
Jesus. While that is true, it is very incomplete. After all Muslims believe in Jesus but he is defined
very differently for them. A comprehensive definition includes beliefs, ethics, rituals and
institutions (major groups).
• Discuss 3 most important turning points in Christian history besides the Roman Catholic and
Protestant Reformations. Argue why you choose these 3 and finally make a case for the 1 of the 3
chosen turning points is most important and why.
Use the book
Noll, Mark A. Turning Points: Decisive Moments in the History of Christianity, 3rd ed (chapter 1,2,4,6, 7, and 9) and a bible but please no references/sources.
