The Apology

Lighthouse Church Fathers

By: Quintus Septimius Florens Tertullianus

Narrated by: Joseph D Weaver

The Apology (Latin: Apologeticum or Apologeticus) is Tertullian's most famous work, consisting of apologetic and polemic. In this book, Tertullian defends the Christian Church, demanding legal toleration and that Christians be treated as all other sects or religions of the Roman Empire. It is in this treatise that one finds the phrase: "The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church."

Wonderful Defense of the Faith

Tertulian is clearly a chad… such a great book.

He destroys the Roman magistrates from every possible angle and many of his arguments have application even today

A view of Christ

The Apology is a serious story by Tertullianus. Joseph D Weaver gives an outstanding performance as the narrator. The Apology is a deep look at the Christian life in Rome. This book is for deep study.

The post NT christian apology that set the standard.

It is rewarding to dig into the writings of the early Christians. There is something special which seasons their works: a closeness to the apostles who walked with Christ and the purifying of pagan persecution which hovered over them. They have a genuineness and soberness which marks their age distinctively from ours. This book is a treasure among them and should be read by every christian who wants to be a serious defender of truth.

Interesting Story

This audiobook gave me so much to think about. I highly recommend this audiobook. I found it interesting to learn more

Outstanding Even Among the Patristic Writings

Absolute masterpiece of conviction, wit, theology, and zeal. Addressed to the Roman governors in a time of widespread Christian persecution with no trace of fear and every sign of God’s glory shining through human pen. Remarkably pertinent teaching on divorce, life in the womb, demonology, and holy living.

Great narrator!
