The Meeting that Changed the World: The Council of Jerusalem AD 49

The Council of Jerusalem: Rediscovering the Most Important Moment in Church History by Michael Knowles is a groundbreaking book that challenges traditional interpretations of the Council and its message for today's Church.

With a unique approach to the Acts of the Apostles, Knowles offers a thorough study of the main tensions leading to the meeting in Jerusalem, making a strong case for women's full admittance to church ministry and universal salvation (not just for fully paid-up Christians).

This book is a must-read for all Christians, particularly in light of Cardinal Newman's canonisation and the need to embrace radical change while staying true to the deposit of faith.

Ignore irrelevant texts and information, and get ready to rediscover the most important moment in Church history with this thoughtful and interesting book by Michael Knowles.
