Classic: Why I changed my mind about Christian history - Tom Holland v Larry Hurtado

  • Summary

  • Back in October 2016, renowned historian Tom Holland penned an article for The New Statesman on why he changed his mind about Christianity. Holland is the author of popular books on ancient empires and says his research made him realise how unique Christianity was in its infancy.
