About this listen

Often called the "Father of Church History", Eusebius was the first to trace the rise of Christianity during its crucial first three centuries from Christ to Constantine. Our principal resource for earliest Chrisitianity, The Church History presents a panorama of apostles, church fathers, emperors, bishops, heroes, heretics, confessors, and martyrs.

This audiobook edition includes Paul L. Maier's clear and precise translation, historical commentary on each book in The Church History, and numerous maps, illustrations, and photographs. These features promise to liberate Eusebius from previous outdated and stilted works, creating a new standard primary resource for listeners interested in the early history of Christianity.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Convicting

What an excellent work! ‘The Church History’ is worthy of the praise it has enjoyed. Above even it’s technical excellence and historical insight, the depiction of the early church’s endurance through persecution is astonishing and inspiring. Eusebius urged by the Holy Spirit has convicted me to mature my childlike faith. Thanks be to god.

overall satisfactory

Good overall challenging with authors commentary on the text, ideally have a different voice to enable ease to distinguish who is speaking.

Unlistenable

The way that this book is narrated provides no distinction between translators footnote and the actual words of Eusebius. it makes it impossible to listen. I would very much like to listen to this title, but the performance renders it impossible.
