Overview

Ignatius of Antioch was one of the greatest leaders of Christianity right after the death of the last apostle. He suffered martyrdom in Rome during the reign of the emperor Trajan (before A.D. 117). As he traveled under Roman guard from his home in Antioch of Syria, Ignatius stopped to visit several bishops of the churches in Asia Minor. From there, he penned seven letters that provide a unique window on the faith, life, and practice of Christians in the early second century. If you want to know what Christianity was like in the time just after the apostles, here you have letters that advance the teachings of Christ and the apostles on such important subjects as church unity, the Eucharist, and the governmental structure of the church.
