In this video, we examine writings of the early Christians from C. 50AD to C. 155 AD to ask: How did they worship? What were some of their practices? and How were their churches structured?
After a brief look at some of the New Testament books, we dive into non-biblical writings of other ancient Christians. I tried to let these ancient authors speak for themselves as much as possible, to tell us what they were like, in their own words.
