Masterful lecture on Theodosius era at St Michael's Chapel

The last and most interesting lecture in the series on early Christian history was given by the Rector at St Michael's Chapel on Wednesday. The talk covered the Christian world under Theodosius the Great, praised Julian yet sketched Theodosius with faults and virtues, and praised Ambrose and Hildebrand. The piece notes eloquent passages on the Serapis temple and compares church fathers, ending with thanks to the Rector for a literary feast and urging attendance next time.
