Clovis: The King Who Burned What He Worshiped

In this episode of A Moment in Church History, Marty recounts the dramatic conversion of Clovis, the pagan Frankish king, amidst the chaotic collapse of Rome. The story unfolds in three acts: the domestic struggle with his Christian wife Clotilda, a desperate battlefield prayer that turns defeat into victory against the Alemanni, and his historic Christmas Day baptism alongside 3,000 of his warriors. Marty frames Clovis as a "Constantine-like" warrior king whose crisis-fueled faith led him to found the Merovingian dynasty, establish Paris as his capital, and forever alter the religious landscape of Western Europe. [1 [https://www.girlmuseum.org/trailblazers-the-age-of-girls-saint-clotilde/]]
