In this video, I provide an introduction to the Epistle to Diognetus and what it tells us about the early church.
This is my favourite piece of Christian writing outside of the New Testament. You should read it in the Holmes and Brannan translation of the Apostolic Fathers. Otherwise, I do a short reading, give a summary of its contents, and explain its view of Christ and the Atonement.
The kind of epistle that makes me whistle.
