The History of the Church: From Christ to Constantine by Eusebius

3.0

I started Eusebius' History of the Church right after finishing Act in my daily Bible reading. While I liked the continuity this provided, I quickly became bogged down in second-century history that simply doesn't interest me as much as the lore surrounding the apostles in the first-century. I say "lore" because I would caution anyone to treat this work as pure truth. While this history is interesting on a speculative level, at the end of the day it is not the inspired Word and should be taken with a grain of salt. There are other issues, but I will say it is a relevant read, even for modern Christians and the issues we face today, because since the beginning of the church (and really the beginning of creation) there is nothing new under the sun.
