This vintage paperback edition of “The Church God Built” by Cecil Coffey offers a fascinating glimpse into the history and theology of the Churches of Christ, a significant branch of the Restoration Movement that emerged in the early 19th century. Published in 1972, this work explores the roots, beliefs, and practices of this Christian movement, which sought to restore the church to its perceived New Testament origins. Coffey, a minister and scholar within the Churches of Christ, provides an insightful and well-researched perspective on the denomination’s unique approach to biblical interpretation, congregational autonomy, and rejection of ecclesiastical hierarchies. Despite its age and minor wear, this copy remains a valuable resource for scholars, historians, and readers interested in the rich tapestry of American religious movements and their impact on contemporary Christianity.
