It's often repeated in textbooks, speeches, and non-fiction: religious liberty came from the enlightenment. Farris doesn't flinch away from the history of persecution that did come from Christians, but takes the position that the advocates of freedom didn't believe in religious liberty in spite of their Christianity, but because of their faith in Christ. Tracing the development of religious liberty from medieval Europe to colonial America, this detailed historical overview explores the attitudes and sacrifices that helped drive the dream of religious liberty in America. 496 pages, softcover.
