Bookchat with Bryan Litfin (with giveaway)

Biblical scholar Bryan Litfin is highly qualified to bring us the story of Constantine’s Empire, The Conqueror being the first in a new trilogy. I’m fascinated by this era, the trials faced by the new Christian church, and the barbaric world the Romans had created.

Enjoy the insights Bryan gives about his characters, the major themes of this story, and what inspired him to write about this pivotal moment in time.
