SynopsisWhat was the early Church like? Contrary to popular belief, Rod Bennett shows there is a reliable way to know. Four ancient Christian writers--four witnesses to early Christianity --left us an extensive body of documentation on this vital subject, and this book brings their fascinating testimony to life for modern believers. With all the power and drama of a gripping novel, this book is a journey of discovery of ancient and beautiful truths through the lives of four great saints of the early Church--Clement of Rome, Ignatius of Antioch, Justin Martyr, and Irenaeus of Lyons.
This book makes me feel like a youth again searching for knowledge. I truly am enjoying learning about the early Church leaders and their connection to Jesus's apostles. I really like the way the author presents the material.
Rod Bennett put together a great picture of how the church stayed true to its roots. Interesting and factual information. Great book! I would recommend to anyone who likes church history.
