UPPER MARLBORO, Md. - Rezul -- DonnaInk Publications is proud to continue its representation of author, educator, consultant, and scholar Plenert with the forthcoming The Rise of Christianity: Christianity's First Four Centuries through the Owlhouse Imprint.

The work expands Plenert's writing into Christian history and theological inquiry, tracing Christianity from the world surrounding Jesus through the early Church, Paul of Tarsus, Roman persecution, developing Scripture and doctrine, Constantine, Nicaea, Church councils, and monasticism.

"DonnaInk Publications is proud to continue representing Plenert as his writing enters another compelling dimension," says publisher Donna L. Quesinberry. "Our recent and forthcoming works engage Christianity, spirituality, faith, and humanity's search for meaning. Gerhard explores that conversation through history and scholarship, considering Christianity amid cultural, political, intellectual, and spiritual change."

About The Rise of Christianity
The Rise of Christianity: Christianity's First Four Centuries examines Christianity's emergence and transformation across the Mediterranean world.

Moving through Jesus, Pentecost, Paul of Tarsus, persecution and martyrdom, theological controversies, the New Testament canon, worship, the Apostolic Fathers, Constantine, Nicaea, councils, creeds, and monasticism, Plenert explores the forces shaping Christian identity.

Beyond religious expansion, the book considers faith under pressure, theological development, community, and Christianity's relationship with political power. Written for academics, seminarians, historians, and general readers, it requires no prior theological or historical training.

"The Owlhouse Imprint is particularly suited to this work," Quesinberry adds. "The Rise of Christianity invites readers to consider history, faith, civilization, and questions that challenged Christian communities nearly two thousand years ago."
