Description: In this episode, we will discuss two commonly held views. Firstly, that Italy and Western Europe were the cradle of Latin Christianity. Secondly, that Northern Africa never held a significant Christian population. We’re going to explore both of these ideas in this episode. The history of the Popes of Rome and Christian Church encompasses so much more than just Italy and Western Europe. This Sidetrack episode will be the starting point on a journey where we will travel to exotic destinations to find out more about lesser known bits of Church history.You can learn more about the History of Papacy and subscribe at all these great places:A to Z History PageiTunes Stitcher RadioTune In RadioRSS FeedAcast Page Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/historyofthepapacy.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
