A Short Manual on Baptism, The Lord's Prayer, Eucharist
with Jim Boyce
It is early in the 2nd century. The Apostles are all dead. The church is under heavy persecution. And early Christians struggle with many devisions or even with giving up the faith to save their skin. How will the church survive? In the mix there appears this anonymous “handbook” describing itself as “the teaching of Jesus to his disciples,” giving instructions for discipleship in changing and desperate times. In two sessions we will explore some of fascinating insights, both ancient, and yet seemingly very modern found in this fairly brief document, long lost to the church, but then discovered again in the last couple centuries.
