Church History - Episode 15: How Close? | Pastor Lance Ralston

About this sermon

In the 15th episode of Church History, Pastor Lance further examines the evolution and expansion of Christianity, both before and during the time of Constantine the Great. We see the impact of Eusebius of Caesarea, and the shifting power dynamics in the early 4th century. Again the issues of persecution and confessors, Novationism, and church gatherings are discussed. We conclude the episode investigating the legitimacy of Constantine's conversion and faith. What are your thoughts on this period in Church History?
