In its earliest days, Christianity was a faith associated with cities. Cities were the spots chosen by the Apostles to begin spreading the Good News, the earliest Christian communities were found in city centers, and cities quickly became the focal points of persecution of Christians—and the blood of the martyrs was always the seed of the Church.
Best-selling author Mike Aquilina has written a book about twelve cities in the ancient world where Christianity caught hold and spread despite often brutal persecutions. “Rabbles, Riots, and Ruins” is a lively journey through cities as diverse as Rome, Jerusalem, Milan, and Constantinople.
In this episode, host Andrew Petiprin speaks with Aquilina about how the unique characteristics of these cities allowed for the development and flourishing of the faith, frequently in hostile environments. They discuss the cities—some still well-known, others lost to history—that defined and shaped the earliest centuries of our Christian faith.
