094 Strange Religion and the First Believers (with Nijay Gupta)

  • サマリー

  • The first Christians were weird. Just how weird is often lost on us today. The first Christians believed unusual things, worshiped God in strange ways, and lived a unique lifestyle. Many in the ancient world saw it as bizarre, even dangerous, but some found this new religion attractive and compelling

    Today we are interviewing Dr. Nijay K. Gupta. He is the Julius R. Mantey Professor of New Testament at Northern Seminary. He is cohost of the Slow Theology podcast, and has written numerous books, including Tell Her Story: How Women Led, Taught, and Ministered in the Early Church, and recently, Strange Religion How the First Christians Were Weird, Dangerous, and Compelling.

    Chapters:
    00:53 Meet Nijay Gupta: Author and Scholar
    01:31 Origins of 'Strange Religion'
    05:19 The Concept of Believers
    06:56 Roman Society and the Christian Challenge
    16:39 Household of Faith: Early Christian Practices
    24:35 The Radical Message of God's Love
    31:55 Conclusion and Upcoming Works
