  • CHT | S2E22: Overview of the 2nd Century
    In the second century, the post-apostolic church learned to read its emerging Scriptures, shape its practice, and endure episodic Roman persecutions that claimed witnesses such as Ignatius and Polycarp. Confronted by gnostic, Marcionite, and Montanist movements, they clarified orthodoxy and fostered the monarchical episcopate, laying the structural and theological foundations for the centuries to come.

  • CHT | S2E21: Going to Church in 100 AD
    Herein we explore what church gatherings looked like in 50–150 AD—early believers met before dawn (and sometimes after work) in private homes rather than dedicated buildings. We'll look at how worship was understood as a "sacrifice" of praise, alms, and service, and why the Roman eight-day week made keeping the Jewish first day of the week a logistical puzzle. Finally, we'll correct common misconceptions and show why no modern church needs to replicate this exact model.

  • CHT | S2E20: The Inevitable New Testament
    Why did the Apostles write the New Testament at all? In this episode, we explore how the New Testament is not just inspired—it's the official, covenantal documentation of the New Covenant. We show why its existence dismantles apostolic succession by office and establishes Scripture as the Church's lasting foundation. Title: The Inevitable New Testament Date: 30 - 100 AD Place: Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and the Uttermost Parts of the Earth. Key Figures and Events: Jesus, Apostles, Christians.

  • CHT | Resource Episode: The Epistles of Ignatius - Short Recension
    The epistles of Ignatius in the Short recension are preserved for us in this form only in the Syriac. If they are more representative of the original writings of Ignatius, then they are some of the earliest Christian documents, offering a glimpse into the mind and heart of an early martyr of the church who was centered in Antioch. The current scholarly opinion is that these are an abridgement of the Middle Recension, but it is included here because that view has received challenge in the recent quarter century, some theorizing that the short recension is actually closer to the form of the original letters. Both the Short and the Middle Recensions will have their own resource episode. Have a question?

  • CHT | S2E19 - The OT Canon in the 1st Century
    When we open our Old Testaments, are we looking at the same books that Jesus and the Apostles were looking at and considering divinely inspired? The answer to that question and so many more as we look into this issue. Title: The OT Canon in the 1st Century Date: 200 BC - 100 AD Place: Alexandria, Antioch, Jerusalem Key Figures and Events: John Contact: [email protected] License: Church History and Theology is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License.
