About Saint Dionysius the Areopagite
Acts records that Dionysius, a member of Athens’s Areopagus, believed after hearing Paul preach about the unknown God and the Resurrection. Early tradition remembers him as a leader of the Athenian church. Centuries later influential mystical writings were attributed to him, though scholars distinguish their later author from Paul’s first-century convert.
