In the 15th episode of Church History, Pastor Lance further examines the evolution and expansion of Christianity, both before and during the time of Constantine the Great. We see the impact of Eusebius of Caesarea, and the shifting power dynamics in the early 4th century. Again the issues of persecution and confessors, Novationism, and church gatherings are discussed. We conclude the episode investigating the legitimacy of Constantine's conversion and faith.

Today’s Q&A comes live from Uganda where David & Inga-Lill have been this week.
Links mentioned in todays stream:
https://enduringword.com/product-category/commentaries-in-print/
https://enduringword.com/bible-commentary/leviticus-14/
This weeks questions and timestamps:
Introduction, update on the work in Africa.
When John the Baptist says in Luke 3:5, "and every mountain and hill will be brought low", is that a literal meaning?
In Luke 10:4, why were those who were sent out told not to greet anyone on the way?
Why do people charge fees for worship and bible conferences/concerts, when the gospel is free?
Is it possible for someone to be saved who is on a ventilator, conscious and hearing the name of Jesus being prayed over them?
In Genesis, there are two lights. One was on the first day, Genesis 1:3-5. The second light was on the fourth day 1, verses 14-19 - was the 1st light Jesus, and was the darkness Satan & his evil angels?
Were the apostles speaking in an unknown heavenly language in Acts 2:8? Meaning, did people hear the apostles in their own languages from the gift of interpretation?
What are your thoughts on the Eastern Orthodox Church? Are they apostate?
How do I help someone move from an intellectual relationship with God to being willing to accept the personal/intimate relationship that God desires? Especially when deep paternal/father wounds are present in them?
when the Angel of the Lord appeared in the OT it was Jesus. Who would you think spoke to Adam? Did they just hear, or do you think God showed Himself visibly?
What are your thoughts on why natural disasters happen and all the people dying from them?
if we are called to prophecy, what does this look like today at church?
What is the main significance to us today as we read about the instructions concerning a leper who got healed in Leviticus chapter 14?
Do you believe that the fire in hell will be literal or metaphorical? Can’t the soul not feel any physical pain there?
How is Uganda and are you enjoying your stay in Uganda?
Is the celebration of birthdays Godly? Where did it originate and should it be avoided?
Does God receive money? Should i take 3000 kenyan shillings ($20) to a pastor, or help my immediate poor neighbour?
If the flood destroyed all life, how can there be still Nephelim in Canaan when the 12 went to investigate the promised land? Someone suggested that they might be the wives of Noah’s sons?
The next time you are in the Miami area, would you consider visiting our Church?
I watched your sermon online at Calvary Chapel Ft. Lauderdale, and would love if you came to Calvary Miami Beach!
Why was the Church in shock or in doubt when Peter knocked on the door, while they were praying on his behalf while in prison? I thought they were praying for God to answer them, now God answered and yet they were shocked!
Pastor with all this canceling of christian online teaching, how will I be able to acquire your teachings?
Jesus said that his disciples will do miracles like healing n casting out demons, but why am I not able to do it ? Is it because I am not his disciple yet, and just a follower?
