The Lost History of Satan

Where did we get our idea of the devil? We often imagine pitchforks and horns, but is that how the church and Scripture imagine the supposed prince of darkness? Are there ideas about the great adversary to humanity that we've forgotten? And should we recapture them? What is true and what is false about this enigmatic figure?

On this episode, we "give the devil his due" and dive into the strange and often baffling history of the concept of Satan within the church. Guiding us like Virgil through the fiery gates is Prof. Gabrielle Thomas, who is, perhaps, the world's foremost expert on the early church and its views of Lucifer.
