The Story of Christianity, Justo Gonzalez
In The Story of Christianity: Volume 1, Justo L. González, author of the highly praised three-volume History of Christian Thought, presents a narrative history of Christianity, from the Early Church to the Dawn of the Protestant Reformation. From Jesus’ faithful apostles to the early reformist John Wycliffe, González skillfully traces core theological issues and developments within the various traditions of the church, including major events outside of Europe, such as the Spanish and Portuguese conquest of the New World. This updated and expanded edition incorporates recent archaeological discoveries about the life of Early Christian Communities, as well as important contemporary research revealing the significant role of women throughout the history of the church. With lively storytelling, The Story of Christianity provides a fascinating and panoramic history of the dramatic events, colorful characters, and revolutionary ideas that shaped the first fifteen centuries of the church.
From Justo L. Gonzalez, author of the acclaimed three-volume History of Christian Thought, The Story of Christianity Volume II: The Reformation to the Present Day is the fully revised and updated second volume of The Story of Christianity. Gonzalez’s astute scholarship, lucid prose, and impassioned focus tell the narrative history of Christianity, beginning with the Protestant Reformation of the sixteenth century and leading all the way up to present day.

Yes, PLEASE! These have been out in Kindle format for years. Why not Logos? (They're available in Spanish only in Logos: https://www.logos.com/product/1860/historia-del-cristianismo-tomo-1 and https://www.logos.com/product/1860/historia-del-cristianismo-tomo-1.) The first volume was my textbook in History of Christianity I, and it's the best general history of early Christianity I'm aware of. I'm sure the second volume is equally good.

Agreed. Excellent resource that should be in logos. Is used in seminary/bible college church history courses, but accessible to the layman as well.
