Description
From the Plague of Cyprian to the Black Death, from cholera to yellow fever, from smallpox to the 1918-19 flu pandemic, the world has seen pandemic before—and the church has responded. Discover how early Christians served their own sick and those of the pagan Roman Empire; medieval believers sought deliverance from the Black Death; Reformation-era leaders debated whether people should flee from plague; and modern pastors collaborated with scientific research. What is happening today is not new from a historical perspective, and God is still on the throne. Learn more in this special bonus issue of Christian History.
