2012 Summer School: The Age of Constantine
The Rockford Institute’s 15th Annual Summer School
The Age of Constantine
July 10-15, 2012
Rockford, Illinois

Topic
In the fourth century, at the very moment when the Church emerged from the catacombs, “The whole world groaned,” Saint Jerome wrote, “and was amazed to find itself Arian.” As blood martyrdom gave way to a different kind of threat, God raised up holy and courageous men, from Saint Athanasius to Saint Augustine, to destroy heresy through a brilliant exposition of the living Faith that still inspires Christians today.
