“If today’s church were more like the early church, we wouldn’t have all of these problems.” Ever heard people talk like this? Many Christians today assume that the earliest Christ followers were zealous converts who were much more devoted to their faith than typical, modern-day church-goers. But today’s guest, Nadya Williams, is here to explain how cultural sins have always been a part of the church’s story. Nadya is a historian and the author of “Cultural Christians in the Early Church.” She first explains what it means to be a cultural Christian. She then details how Roman culture was different from 21st-century American culture and provides examples of early cultural Christianity. Plus, why should we care about this today? And can politics bring about the kingdom of God? Listen now!
