What was the message of the early Church and how did that message take root in those who were listening?
The message that the Church proclaims is critical in guiding what the Church is all about. This proclamation needs to include the full expression of how Jesus is the complete resolution to the story of Israel. In this episode Dr. McKnight provides the framework to continually grow in understanding the message of the early Church and being able to proclaim that message in and through the Church.
