The fall of the Roman Empire left the West in chaos and ruin. In this environment, many civilizations crumbled. But medieval Christianity not only survived, but it also created the circumstances for a new, thriving society to emerge. From the chaos of the Dark Ages, the unifying powers of the Church brought order and stability, building schools, organizing social welfare, and transforming barbarian raiders into Christian nations. Through the Church's preservation of classical thought and education, we owe the Church an incalculable debt. As the author argues, the work of the Church during this tumultuous era was essential to the renewal of civilization.
