  • Lessons from the Early Church

    Listening to the Fathers Today

    Our individaul identities are shaped by and linked to our parents and the stories of our families. As a Church, our identity is linked to and shaped by our fathers and mothers in the faith, the earliest Christians.  What do those early Christians have to say that is of revelance to the contemporary Church? How is our understanding of liturgy shaped by what Jesus’ followers in the first centuries believed and practiced? Have the changes in the eucharist brought us closer to the ancient church or separated us from our roots?

    Relationships require effort.  That’s true whether we’re talking about our relationship with God or with one another.  Things go most smoothly, though, when God Himself is putting forth the greatest effort.  And that’s what He does in the sacraments.  They are his privileged source of grace for the healing and renewal of the ties that bind. Listen to Dr. Scott and Kimberly Hahn as they talk about the power and promise of the sacraments - in deeply biblical terms.

    A Six Lesson Audio Bible Study Course
