The idea that Christianity started as a clandestine movement among the poor is a widely accepted notion. This book addresses beliefs and historical facts, and brings a sociologist's perspective to bear on the puzzle behind the success of early Christianity. It provides insights into why people convert and how new religious groups recruit members.
