Synopsis
Discover how Christianity entered Rome and took root in a city ruled by empire and tradition.
This title surveys the earliest years of the Christian church in Rome, focusing on who helped it grow and how it faced a conflicted empire. It traces the blend of Jewish and Gentile believers, the role of Paul and his friends Aquila and Priscilla, and the quiet spread of the gospel through a capital city that would soon test its faith with powerful challenges.
- Learn how Christians lived in Rome before and during the empire’s early trials.
- See how Paul’s networks and hospitality among Jews and Gentiles shaped the church.
- Explore the tension between new belief and old religious customs, and how Apologies helped defend the faith.
- Understand the rise of internal disputes and how Rome and other centers respond to schisms and persecution.
