Slavery was widespread throughout the Mediterranean lands where Christianity was born and developed Though Christians were both slaves and slaveholders there has been surprisingly little study of what early Christians thought about the realities of slavery How did they reconcile slavery with the Gospel teachings of brotherhood and charity Slaves were considered the sexual property of their owners what was the status within the Church of enslaved women and young male slaves who were their owners sexual playthings Is there any reason to believe that Christians shied away from the use of corporal punishments so common among ancient slave ownersJennifer A Glancy brings a multilayered approach to these and many other issues offering a comprehensive reexamination of the evidence pertaining to slavery in early Christianity Drawing on a wide variety of sources Glancy situates early Christian slavery in its broader cultural setting She argues that scholars have consistently underestimated the pervasive impact of slavery on the institutional structures ideologies and practices of the early churches and of individual Christians The churches she shows grew to maturity with the assumption that slaveholding was the norm and welcomed both slaves and slaveholders as members Glancy draws attention to the importance of the body in the thought and practice of ancient slavery To be a slave was to be a body subject to coercion and violation with no rights to corporeal integrity or privacy Even early Christians who held that true slavery was spiritual in nature relied ultimately on bodily metaphors to express this Slavery Glancy demonstrates was an essential feature of both the physical and metaphysical worlds of early ChristianityThe first book devoted to the early Christian ideology and practice of slavery this work sheds new light on the world of the ancient Mediterranean and on the development of the early Church

The story of Christianity is an immeasurably fascinating one A faith that began in Roman occupied Palestine as a small and fugitive faction within Judaism grew thrived and finally conquered the empire that had sought to exterminate it Then over many centuries and in many lands it became the vital source from which new civilizations sprang At times its geographical range expanded mightily at others contracted perilously At times the church proved heroically true to its deepest moral principles at others inexcusably traitorous to themBut by the beginning of the 21st century this faith that began in such fragility and that became so powerfuleven though its temporal power has now receded in its historic homelandsis the most widespread and diverse of all religions Christianity is rapidly taking root in cultures very different from those in which it was born and in which it once flourished and is assuming configurations that could not have been anticipated a century agoIn The Story of Christianity the distinguished theologian David Bentley Hart provides a broad picture of Christian history Presented in 50 short chapterseach focusing on a critical facet of Christian history or theology and each amplified by timelines quotations and color imageshis magisterial account does full justice to the range of Christian tradition belief and practiceEastern Orthodox Roman Catholic Anglican Presbyterian Evangelical Coptic Chaldean Ethiopian Orthodox Armenian Orthodox Malankaran to name but a few of the many possibilitiesFrom the persecutions of the early church to the papalimperial conflicts of the Middle Ages from the religious wars of 16th and 17thcentury Europe to the challenges of science and secularism in the modern era and from the ancient Christian communities of Africa and Asia to the house churches of contemporary China The Story of Christianity triumphantly captures the heterogeneous richness of Christian history
