This Day in Church History
Five minutes a day on what happened on this date in the history of the Christian church. Each episode brings two stories, from the early church and the great councils to missionaries, martyrs, the Reformation, revivals and the hymns we still sing: the people behind them, one vivid detail, and why it still matters for faith today. Every episode is researched from reliable sources, listed in the show notes. A new episode comes out every morning.
