The Encyclopedia of Christianity is a one-volume

Martin Marty from the University of Chicago. It contains twenty one colour pictures and ninety six black and white illustrations.[4][5]

In his introduction Bowden noted that most Christians have only a limited understanding of the traditions of their own religion.

Richard Ostling called this book, together with its companion release, the Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church (3rd ed.), "2005's books of the year in religion", and commented that the Encyclopedia takes a "relatively moderate approach to literary and historical disputes."[2] Publishers Weekly said: "Overall, this encyclopedia is a must-have for any Christian reference shelf."[4]
