Much More than a Movement
This is a good read for background information, especially for those unaware of what life was like in that period. Christianity was a new ‘religion’ that became much more. It was welcomed and chastised at the same time. It’s interesting how events of the time impact life… then and now.
Also, this is easy to read and to understand which makes it good for everyone… beginners and mature believers, or simply those interested in that period in history.
Christianity was a new movement that kept evolving and growing. Change never is easy and this helps the reader to see how this ‘change’ grew and ‘changed’ the world.

Real good read
Learn things that were not even taught in church as I grew up. I recommend this book for a quick overview and a stepping stone for deeper learning.
