How did a tiny movement centred on a crucified Jewish teacher grow into the dominant religion of the Roman world? In this episode of Rearview Mirror Chronicles, we explore the extraordinary rise of Christianity, from small communities meeting quietly in Roman cities to a powerful institution that would eventually shape the destiny of an empire. 

But this is not just a story about belief. It is also about organisation, trade networks, politics, and the administrative machinery of Rome itself. 

As the empire changed and eventually fragmented, the structures of Christianity helped carry forward the legacy of the Roman world long after the emperors and their legions had disappeared.
