Dr. Kenneth Calvert joins us today to talk about the very first Christians--those who turned the world upside-down! Be inspired and encouraged by the early church, which began under the heavy arm of the Roman Empire. Long after the Roman has fallen, the church goes on! Along with many stories, we talk about my favorite ancient Christian, Polycarp.
Dr. Calvert is the Professor of History and Director of the Oxford Program at Hillsdale College. @hillsdalecollege You can take his course on Ancient Christianity for free at https://online.hillsdale.edu/landing/ancient-christianity.
