Thematic focus

Church in history

The church is first and foremost the community of believers. But over almost two millennia, it has also been an often decisive player in human history: in politics, economics, culture and science.

Hier finden Sie sowohl zukünftige als auch vergangene Veranstaltungen zu diesem Themenfeld, als auch Beiträge aus unserer Zeitschrift „zur debatte“ und die Videos, Audios und Podcast-Folgen zu diesem Themengebiet.
