Who were the first Christians? What did they believe, how did they live, and how did they differ from their pagan neighbors? What beliefs and practices existed in ancient times but have not survived to this day, and why did they disappear? Is it true that church history was largely written by the victors in the competitive battle of ideas, and why did they prevail? How, exactly, can we learn all this, and how accurate are our modern reconstructions? Don't they sometimes reveal more about ourselves than about the first Christians? A new book by biblical scholar Andrei Desnitsky explores these questions.
