In this episode we explore how the first generations of Christians continued to follow Jesus after Jesus’ ascension and the coming of the Holy Spirit. We will discuss the book of Acts, an early Christian instruction manual called the Didache, and also how the earliest Christians were viewed by the outside world.

In this episode we explore some of the most important developments in the earliest Christian church. As the earliest Christians continued to face evolving political changes, they began to gather together to articulate their shared beliefs more clearly. Tragically, we also arrive at the “Great Schism,” where Eastern and Western Christians parted ways.

In this episode we discuss significant developments in what is commonly referred to as the “Middle Ages” in the Western church. It is a mixture of good news and bad news, and we also begin to see seeds of renewal that have direct connections to some of the denominations we know and participate in today.

In this episode we explore some watershed moments in the history of not only the Western church but also the Western world in general: the Renaissance and the Protestant Reformation. It is in this era that the tradition we know as Methodism, or Wesleyanism more generally, appears.
