Scottish Church History (first published 1985) by Gordon Donaldson (1913–1993) is a compact but wide-ranging history of Christianity in Scotland that draws together decades of scholarly research into a readable narrative. Donaldson was a noted historian of Scotland and the church, and this book reflects his deep engagement with primary sources and ecclesiastical institutions.

The work spans roughly the early introduction of Christianity in Scotland through later medieval and Reformation transformations, up to post-Reformation developments.

The author's treatment is historical, narrative, and rooted in documented evidence. Rather than offering theological argumentation, the focus is on:

Chronological development of the church,

Interactions between church and state,

Internal reforms and external pressures, and

Cultural influences of the church on Scottish life.
