You Tube Theology

It is commonly claimed that the Christianization of Scandinavia in the 10th and 11th centuries was just a matter of politics. In this video I draw from Adam of Bremen, a medieval historian, to show how many missionaries and martyrs played a role in the spread of Christianity into Northern Europe.

Here is Adam's book: https://www.amazon.com/History-Archbishops-Hamburg-Bremen-Adam-Bremen/dp/0231125747/truthunites-20

Truth Unites is a mixture of apologetics and theology, with an irenic focus.

Gavin Ortlund (PhD, Fuller Theological Seminary) serves as senior pastor of First Baptist Church of Ojai.
