Summary

It is the largest faith in the world, spans the globe, and stretches back in time nearly 2,000 years. We are, of course, talking about Christianity.

Today, the dominance of the Christian faith appears to be a readily accepted fact. But back when it first rose to prominence, for most outside observers, such an idea would have seemed highly unlikely.

From its inception, Christianity was persecuted and hounded. Christians often paid a high price for their faith. They met underground and even in graveyards. They were misunderstood, and their message to outsiders seemed hopelessly strange and muddled. Back then, no one could have imagined that this “cult", which often met in secret, small groups, would one day have huge churches and an even larger global presence.

Yet, despite the odds, Christianity proved to be unstoppable. How did such a thing happen? From the perspective of a believer, the answer to that question is quite clear: the divine hand of God was at work. But even if one does not subscribe to the Christian faith, there are certain aspects of Christianity that stand out and can be used as mile markers as to how and why Christianity came to take such a prominent place in world history.

This audiobook takes a look at the full history of Christianity, from its earliest days as a persecuted sect, to its acceptance and formalization at the Council of Nicaea, to the Middle Ages, the Enlightenment, and the subsequent modern age.

In this audiobook, you will learn about the following:

  • The origins of Christianity and why people flocked to the religion
  • The life and ministry of Jesus
  • The first Christian disciples
  • The early Christian church
  • The Council of Nicaea and the momentous impact it had on Christian history
  • And a whole lot more!
