The Age of Redemption is one of the major time periods of the Imperium of Man. It was preceded by the Age of Apostasy and followed by the Waning, stretching from mid-M37 to the beginning of M39.
Basically, the Imperium, fresh off the Thorian Reformation, decided to expend all of its troops in penitent and redemptive crusades instead of, you know, actually defending its borders. This would prove to be a bad idea.
Abyssal Crusade
One of the more important events of the Age of Redemption was the Abyssal Crusade. Basically, a Chaos-worshipping Ecclesiarch (apparently such things exist) sent thirty Chapters of Space Marines on a crusade into the Eye of Terror, where most of them went renegade.
Children's/Lost Crusade
A bunch of optimists, mostly children, decided they could change the galaxy for the better with love and tolerance. They decided to go on a pilgrimage for Terra, calling themselves the Children's Crusade.
And then all the ships got lost in the Warp!
They reappeared almost a thousand years later, most of the ships twisted and torn beyond recognition. It was renamed the Lost Crusade, and the Inquisition tried their hardest to cover it up.
