Christianity & History: First-Century Palestine

Knowing your history is critical. Without it, a person could all too easily slip into the role of persecutor. And Shawn Boonstra says that could be the reason other people stop trusting Christians.

Dive into the rich tapestry of history with us as we explore the pivotal role of first-century Palestine in shaping Christianity and the narrative of Jesus. This video highlights the potential pitfalls of not fully grasping historical contexts, which can lead to skewed interpretations of faith. We'll also take a closer look at the Roman occupation, examining its effects on religious freedom and the hurdles it created for the Jewish community. By understanding these historical contexts, we aim to deepen your understanding and appreciation of the Christian faith. Join us on this enlightening journey through history!
