Rethinking Early Christian Mission maps the complex diffusion of Christianity from rural Galilee to imperial dominance. Di Berardino looks beyond standard mission narratives to explore the social geography of expansion, emphasizing the roles of everyday believers-including slaves, soldiers, and women-in transmitting the faith. This nuanced study of identity formation and technical vocabulary challenges our understanding of "Christianization" in the Roman world.
