Description

What 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 Four Witnesses 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.

"A treasure! The early Church and its teachings come to life in this story. Did the first Christians believe what you believe? Buy this book, read the words of the early Church Herself, and fall in love with the historic Church that Christ Himself founded." —David Currie, Author, Born Fundamentalist, Born Again Catholic

"Rod Bennett has immersed himself in the fascinating writings of four early Fathers of the Church and has made the discovery from reading them that sincere and attentive readers of them ought to make. The author's imaginative account of these four great Church Fathers is not only an excellent introduction to their work; it is a convincing rendering of what the early Church must really have been like. This is an important new contribution to Christian apologetics." —Kenneth Whitehead, Author, One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic

    Apologetics and Church History... History

    Posted by Javo on Jun 18th 2024

    Amazing introduction (there is a LOT MORE) to Early Christianity... to Christianity, *period*. Follow this one with "The Early Church was the Catholic Church" and relax... let The Shepherd rally His members at His own time in His own ways... (thats what I tell myself at least... not that easy =p. See Jeff Cavins on "I'm Not Being Fed") In any case... GREAT book.
