This week we step into new territory with Hippolytus of Rome and his Apostolic Tradition. While we’ve walked with apologists, polemicists, and theologians, Hippolytus hands us something practical—the earliest snapshot of how the church actually lived, prayed, baptized, and ordained. He was fiery, sometimes even at odds with his fellow clergy, but his work preserves a priceless record of second- and third-century Christian worship. In an age of division, his testimony still points us back to the one faith, one Lord, one baptism (Ephesians 4:5).
