What was life like for the world's first Christians?

#Welcome back to Echos of Centuries! In this video we explore the daily life and experiences of the world's first Christians. From a few Greek speaking communities of the Eastern Mediterranean, Christian faith grew exponentially between 50 and 250 A.D We explore topics including but not limited to, the culture of early communities, Apostle Paul's Impact, persecution by Rome and the creation of the New Testament Bible. Before 250 AD, the faith that would become the world's largest religion in later history comprised of less than 1% of the Roman Empire's population.
