UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST - CONGREGATIONAL

AMES, IOWA

Kniker to Teach an Iowa UCC Course

The Iowa Conference of the United Church of Christ will offer three adult education courses August 22-23 and continuing October 3 - 4, as part of the SEARCH, CENTER and LEARN programs.

Ames UCC member the Rev. Dr. Charles Kniker will teach the course usually called “A History of Christianity” or “Church History.” Charles believes that current world events mandate the inclusion of key interactions with Judaism and Islam. Considering the limited time of the class, Charles will emphasis four periods of time:

· the Early Church (approximately 100 to 350 A.D.);

· the Reformation and Enlightenment Movements (1400 to 1600s); and

· religious history in America (1600 and 1700s); and (1800s and 1900s).
