Episode 105. Ancient Landmarks: An Evangelical Guide to Church History

0:00 43:28

How should evangelicals understand and engage the rich theological heritage of the early and medieval church?

In this episode, we discuss Leonardo De Chirico’s new book, Ancient Landmarks: An Evangelical Guide to Patristic and Medieval Thought (IVP Academic/Apollos, 2026). Spanning the second through the fourteenth centuries, the book introduces key figures, theological debates, and developments that continue to shape Christianity today.

We are also joined by Joshua Kannard, who translated the book from Italian into English, to discuss the translation process and why this work matters for contemporary evangelicals.

Together, we explore how evangelicals can appreciate the riches of historic Christianity while exercising biblical discernment.

Ancient Landmarks releases in November 2026 and is available now for preorder on Amazon.
