Everything Latter-Day Saints Need To Know About Ancient Christians - Dr. Jason R. Combs | For All The Saints 45

For All The Saints With Ben Hancock

Dr. Jason R. Combs is an associate professor of Ancient Scripture and affiliate faculty of Ancient Near Eastern Studies at Brigham Young University. He also edited the book 'Ancient Christians: An Introduction for Latter-Day Saints.'
I wanted to speak to Jason as I am often saddened that I gloss over the 1500+ year period of what we call the Great Apostasy, I find it quite a disparaging term considering the incredible sacrifices of countless truth-seekers and Jason's book helps to bring those important stories of ancient Christians to light and connect them to us, Latter-day Saints.
Some highlights from this episode include why Latter-day Saints misunderstand the Nicene Creed, what the primitive Church may have looked like compared to the modern Church, and the incredible story of Perpetua.
