Excerpt from Early Church History: To the Death of Constantine The first issue having been exhausted in less than eighteen months, a second edition is now presented to the reader. The whole work has been revised with much care, many parts have been amplified, and some have been recast. Acknowledgments are due for suggestions to several friendly reviewers in the current periodicals. The chief new feature in the present edition is the introduction of the Teaching of the Twelve Apostles, a treatise of the Primitive Church recently discovered at Constantinople, and published whilst our History was passing through the press. The treatise will be found entire, with some introductory remarks, at page 117, where it forms an Appendix to Part I. The interval which elapsed between the close of the New Testament and the rise of a Church literature sufficient for the construction of history, must of necessity be to us for the most part a silent period. From the bright flood of morning light which is shed upon the Apostolic age we pass into a dim twilight, broken only by occasional gleams casting but an uncertain ray upon the Church's progress. To these scanty sources of historic light, the Teaching of the Twelve Apostles is a very welcome addition. It bears witness to the change which during the silent period was advancing over the Church. The worship, the services, the ministers, were losing the simplicity of earlier days, and assuming that ritualistic and priestly character, which we find, not indeed fully developed, yet unmistakably present, in the pages of Justin Martyr, of Irenaeus, and of Tertullian. In the Teaching of the Twelve Apostles we view the Church in a transition state, when the seeds of some corruptions are already manifest, but much of the primitive simplicity is still retained.

Eusebius's account is the only surviving historical record of the Church during its crucial first 300 years. Bishop Eusebius, a learned scholar who lived most of his life in Caesarea in Palestine, broke new ground in writing the History and provided a model for all later ecclesiastical historians. In tracing the history of the Church from the time of Christ to the Great Persecution at the beginning of the fourth century, and ending with the conversion of the Emperor Constantine, his aim was to show the purity and continuity of the doctrinal tradition of Christianity and its struggle against persecutors and heretics.

The Monarch History of the Church is an eight-volume series by world-renowned historians and theologians. Each volume offers an even-handed, comprehensive and readable assessment of the main strands of Christianity within its period. The first volume covers the period AD 30-312. During this time, the church experienced major challenges politically, culturally and intellectually, yet grew and defined itself in remarkable ways. Here is the story of Christianity's earliest shapers - men and women whose influence is still felt today.

Sometimes called the "Christian Herodotus" and often referred to as the "Father of ecclesiastical history," Eusebius (A.D. 263-339) has earned legitimate fame as the historian of Christian antiquity. An intimate friend of the Emperor Constantine, the Greek Bishop Eusebius wrote the only surviving account of the church during its crucial first 300 years. - Jacket flap.

How and why did the early church grow in the first four hundred years despite disincentives, harassment, and occasional persecution? In this unique historical study, veteran scholar Alan Kreider delivers the fruit of a lifetime of study as he tells the amazing story of the spread of Christianity in the Roman Empire. Challenging traditional understandings, Kreider contends the church grew because the virtue of patience was of central importance in the life and witness of the early Christians. They wrote about patience, not evangelism, and reflected on prayer, catechesis, and worship, yet the church grew--not by specific strategies but by patient ferment.
