Papal Vault – Earliest Popes: Diocletian’s Persecution

The Great Peace of the Church gave Christianity room to grow, but that calm shattered under Diocletian’s brutal persecution. This episode follows Popes Caius, Marcellinus, Marcellus, and Eusebius through martyr stories, lapsed Christians, Donatist tensions, and the violence that shook the Roman church before Constantine’s rise.
