From Prisoner to Saint: The Story of Gregory the Illuminator
Anthology Of Heroes History - En podkast av Elliot Gates
Kategorier:
St Gregory was one of the first Christian missionaries in the 3rd century. He bought his faith to Armenia, and received a hostile reception from King Tiradates III who tortured him mercilessly attempting to making him recant his faith. When he refused, he was sentenced to live in a hole in the ground, high in the Armenian mountains for 14 years. He is remembered for creating the first ever 'blueprint' for Church hierarchy and is the Patron Saint of Armenia. His story is one of suffering, penance and triumph.
