In church history, spiritual insights easily get along with the details of everyday life, moral exploits are adjacent to fanatical savagery, cruel wars - with the disputes of the sages. In it, you can easily find elements of tragedy and farce, detective and judicial chronicle, a fairy tale and even a sloppy novel. For some, it is a valuable source of information about the past, for others - the treasury of deep insights about the essence of human nature. The historian and writer Vladimir Sokolov set himself the task of popularly state church history, based solely on reliable sources and in conjunction with worldly events. The palace coups, the love intrigues of the emperors, the mass desire of Christians for martyrdom, the invasion of the barbarians, the universal cathedrals, civil wars, heresies, the elections of the patriarchs - all this flows in a single stormy stream, in which Christianity, which began with the modest persecution of communities, gradually overcomes the rest of the religions and the remaining religions and the remaining religions. Penetrates into the flesh and blood of the state
