The Early Christian Church remains a topic of on-going interest. In addition to the documents for the course, also consider, “The Epistle of Mathetes to Diognetus,” (http://www.earlychristianwritings.com/text/diognetus-roberts.html) and Clement of Alexandria’s Stromata, (https://www.newadvent.org/fathers/02101.htm). How did the Early Church relate to its broader culture? What did it share with Greco-Roman culture, what did it reject, and what did it transform? How does this help us understand the growth of the Early Christian Church?
