I really need to pick up some books about early Christianity and its relationship to the Roman Empire. Certainly cool history.

My first rec would be Rod Bennett’s The Early Church in Her Own Words. It’s a good starting point that grounds you in what the early authors of Christianity were thinking and discussing.
