S1E1 - The Books of the New Testament
The Bible did not fall from the sky, written in “Ye Olde English” with the words of Jesus in red print. It came through the story and struggles of the early church.

S1E2 - The World of Jesus and the Apostles
If it had been up to a human strategist to plan the successful entry of God into history, it is unlikely he or she would have chosen locations like Bethlehem, Nazareth, and Galilee.

S1E7 - The Mission of the Church
The church has always been a missional community. Wherever Christians have gone, they’ve taken their faith with them and shared the good news about Jesus. But they not only spoke about it—they also lived it out in concrete ways. The reason is simple: it’s a direct imitation of Jesus or a direct ...

S1E8 - The Creation of the New Testament
When God gave people his Word, the Bible, he did not give them the finished puzzle. In a sense, he gave them the box filled with so many pieces that it took centuries for them to put it together. It wasn’t just one person who worked on this puzzle, but countless individuals from a rich mix of tim...
