Sidetrack Episode 29: Priscillian of Avila
Description: The story of Priscillian carries on with our theme of lesser known figures in Church history, who should be better known. Priscillian raised many interesting questions that cut to the heart of Christianity. Priscillian questioned the role of personal connection to scripture, asceticism and the relationship with the hierarchy and civil authorities. Priscillian will wade into the heated debate of the role of the State in religion, but his story will not have a happy ending.

Sidetrack Episode 28: Gothic and Germanic Christianity with Travis Dow
Description: The Goths and Germans were much more than barbarians bent on destruction. These groups were looking to plug into the economic, military and cultural institutions the Roman Empire had to offer. Religion was another way for outside groups to integrate into the Roman Empire. Goths signed on to Christianity quite early, with their other Germanic cousins joining in successive waves. This episode is a collaboration with Travis Dow of the History of Germany podcast. Travis and Steve review the background of Gothic Christianity and preview the interaction of the Germans and Church in the aftermath of the fall of the Western Roman Empire.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
