Inside Nicaea: Constantine, Creeds, and Clergy Rules You Didn’t See Coming

2025-10-08

Step into the Council of Nicaea like you’re really there. In this narrative-style episode, Travis and Brian bring the voices, sights, and tensions of 325 CE to life, complete with Constantine’s own words (voiced dramatically), bishops bearing scars from persecution, and the heated debates that forged the Nicene Creed. Along the way, discover the 20 surprising church laws passed (spoiler: “no self-castration” tops the list), and how this single gathering reshaped Christianity forever.
